Dirty panels cost you money every single day. Professional cleaning restores maximum energy production and protects your investment.
Hear from Our Customers
You invested tens of thousands in solar panels to cut your electric bills and boost your property value. But when dirt, pollen, bird droppings, and environmental debris accumulate on those panels, you’re watching your investment underperform every single day.
Research from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory proves that soiling reduces solar energy production by up to 7% annually. For a typical New Hope homeowner with a 5kW system, that’s hundreds of dollars in lost savings each year. Larger systems lose even more – MIT found that just 1% power reduction costs over $200,000 annually on commercial installations.
Clean panels capture maximum sunlight and convert it into electricity at peak efficiency. They deliver the energy savings you were promised when you went solar, protect your long-term investment, and ensure you get every watt you paid for.
Blue Ridge Exterior Cleaning brings over 15 Years of combined industry experience to every solar panel cleaning project in New Hope. Since opening in 2010, we’ve built our reputation on old-fashioned values: personal service, clear communication, and never compromising quality for price.
New Hope homeowners choose us because we understand what’s at stake with solar investments. These aren’t just panels on your roof – they’re sophisticated energy systems that require proper care to deliver maximum returns. Our team holds certifications from Spray Wash Pro, Spray Wash Academy, and the National Soft Wash Alliance.
When you call, you get a real person who answers your questions. When we arrive, you get certified professionals who treat your property with respect and deliver results that protect your solar investment for years to come.
Every solar panel cleaning starts with a thorough system inspection. We check for loose connections, damaged panels, or potential issues that could affect performance or safety. You’ll know exactly what we found and what it means for your energy production.
The cleaning process uses specialized low-pressure soft wash techniques designed specifically for photovoltaic systems. No garden hose spray-downs that leave mineral deposits. No harsh chemicals that damage anti-reflective coatings. No high-pressure methods that can crack panels or force water into electrical connections.
We finish with pure water rinses that prevent spotting and streaking. Your panels dry completely clean and ready to capture New Hope’s excellent 4.8 daily peak sun hours at maximum efficiency. Most residential systems take 2-4 hours depending on size and roof accessibility.

New Hope’s climate provides excellent solar potential with 205 sunny days annually and 4.8 peak sun hours daily. But Virginia’s environment also deposits pollen, dust, and organic debris on panel surfaces throughout the year. Even the state’s 43 inches of annual rainfall isn’t enough – rain actually collects atmospheric pollutants and leaves mineral deposits when it dries.
Professional PV panel washing uses methods specifically engineered for solar energy systems. We remove all types of soiling without damaging sensitive components, restore anti-reflective properties, and ensure optimal light transmission. Your panels work at peak efficiency, delivering maximum energy production and protecting your substantial investment.
