Solar Panel Cleaning in Leander
A solar array in Leander spends its life under cedar pollen and limestone dust, and every layer of that is output you paid for and are not getting. Here is what cleaning does and does not do.
Why panels lose output
Dust and pollen scatter light before it reaches the cell. The loss is gradual, so nobody notices until they compare a month to the same month last year. Bird mess is worse, because it blocks a cell completely and the array works around it.

What's included
- Pure water washing of all exterior glass
- Detailing of edges and corners so no drips are left behind
- Wiping of exterior frames and sills
- Ladder and extension pole work for second-story and high windows
- Treatment of light hard water spots where the glass allows it
How panels are cleaned
Pure water and a soft brush on a pole, from the ground or from a ladder at the eaves. No detergent, which can leave a film that attracts more dust, and no pressure, which can force water past the seals.
What Leander glass is up against
Newer production and semi-custom homes, often two storeys, with large rear elevations and glass that may still carry builder residue.
- Active construction dust
- Ongoing development puts fine site dust on the wind, which settles on glass faster than in established neighborhoods.
- Young landscaping, strong sprinklers
- New lawns get watered hard, and sprinkler heads set for a bare lot often reach the glass.
What we will not do
We do not walk on roofs, and we do not touch wiring, inverters or mounting. If an array can only be reached by walking the roof, that is a job for a solar contractor, not us.
Working in Leander
Leander is still being built, and that shapes the work. A lot of houses here are only a few years old, and their first proper clean usually means taking off construction film, plaster splash and paint flecks that the builder's clean never touched. That is a careful scraping job rather than a wash, and it only has to be done once.
What it costs
We do not price Leander work from a table. We look at the property, count the glass, check the access, then give you a written price with no obligation. Your card is charged after the work is done, not before.

Solar Panel Cleaning in Leander — common questions
Does cleaning solar panels actually improve output?
Yes, where dust, pollen or bird mess has built up. The dirtier the array, the bigger the difference.
How often should panels be cleaned?
Once or twice a year suits most arrays here, more after a heavy cedar season.
Do you use chemicals?
No. Pure water and a soft brush. Detergent leaves a film that collects more dust.
Will you walk on my roof to reach them?
No. We work from the ground or a ladder at the eaves. If that will not reach, we will say so.
Do you touch the wiring or inverter?
No. We clean the glass surface only. Anything electrical is for your solar contractor.
