Professional cleaning restores 7-30% of lost energy production while protecting your valuable solar investment from damage.
Hear from Our Customers
Your solar panels lose efficiency every day they stay dirty. Dust, pollen, bird droppings, and Virginia’s heavy tree coverage create a film that blocks sunlight from reaching your cells. Research shows this buildup can reduce your energy production by 15-25% in our humid climate, and up to 40% in severe cases.
When your panels operate at peak efficiency, you see the difference immediately. Your energy bills drop back to where they should be. Your monitoring system shows the numbers you expected when you invested in solar. Most importantly, you’re getting the full return on the significant investment you made in clean energy.
Our professional solar panel cleaning service removes years of accumulated grime safely and completely. We use specialized equipment and techniques that restore your panels to like-new performance without the risk of damage that comes with DIY cleaning attempts.
We’ve been serving Central Virginia homeowners since 2010, with over 15 Years of combined experience in exterior cleaning. We’re certified by industry leaders including Spray Wash Pro, Spray Wash Academy, and the National Soft Wash Alliance.
What sets us apart in the Ivy area is our understanding of local conditions. Virginia’s tall trees, seasonal pollen, and humid climate create unique challenges for solar panel maintenance. We know how Charlottesville-area weather patterns affect your panels differently throughout the year.
You’ll always reach a real person when you call us, not a call center. Our crew communicates clearly about timing and expectations. We even deliver invoices and materials in person because we believe in doing business the right way—building relationships, not just completing transactions.
Our solar panel cleaning process starts with a thorough inspection of your system. We check for any existing damage, loose connections, or areas that need special attention before we begin cleaning. This protects your investment and helps catch potential problems early.
Next, we use specialized low-pressure washing techniques designed specifically for solar panels. Unlike pressure washing that can damage seals and void warranties, our soft wash system removes dirt, algae, and buildup without risking your equipment. We use purified water and eco-friendly cleaning solutions that won’t leave residue or harm your landscaping.
Finally, we perform a post-cleaning inspection to ensure every panel is spotless and functioning properly. We’ll point out any issues we discovered and provide recommendations for maintenance scheduling based on your specific location and environmental factors. You’ll see the difference immediately in both appearance and energy production.

Our solar panel cleaning service includes comprehensive inspection, professional cleaning, and performance optimization. We remove all types of buildup that affect Virginia solar installations: pollen from our abundant trees, bird droppings, dust from nearby farms and construction, and algae growth from our humid climate.
In the Ivy area, we see specific challenges that other regions don’t face. The combination of Charlottesville’s tree coverage and seasonal weather patterns creates unique soiling conditions. Spring brings heavy pollen loads that stick to panels. Summer humidity encourages algae growth. Fall leaves and winter debris accumulate in corners and edges.
We understand these local patterns and adjust our cleaning approach accordingly. Your service includes detailed documentation of your system’s condition, before-and-after photos, and personalized recommendations for optimal cleaning frequency based on your property’s specific conditions and your panels’ performance data.
