Solar Panel Cleaning in Marble Falls
A solar array in Marble Falls 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 Marble Falls glass is up against
Lakeside homes have the large elevations. Main Street storefronts have the opposite problem, a smaller area of glass that has to look clean to a customer standing a foot away from it.
- Storefront glass
- Shop windows are judged from inches away. Fingerprints and door-push marks need a weekly or fortnightly visit, not an annual one.
- Lake Marble Falls elevations
- Water-facing walls of glass get spray and wind-blown grit, usually on the hardest side to reach.
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 Marble Falls
Marble Falls has two kinds of work. Lakeside homes have the usual big elevations facing the water. Then there is the town itself, where shopfronts on and around Main Street need glass that looks right from the pavement every week, not once a year. Granite dust from the quarries and the surrounding hills is the thing that makes both dirty faster than people expect.
What it costs
We do not price Marble Falls 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 Marble Falls — 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.
