Solar Panel Cleaning in Alresford
Many Alresford roofs now carry solar panels, from bungalows on the post-war roads to newer homes built in the village. Leaves, pollen and droppings from the creek-side trees and garden birds soon dull the glass. A pure water clean from us takes it all off and dries spot-free.
Count your panels, pop the number into the builder below, and the price appears.

Trees, birds and creek-side damp
The trees that make Alresford such a green village drop pollen, sap and leaf fragments onto panels, especially in spring. Garden birds and woodpigeons perch on ridges and leave droppings that bake on in summer. On homes nearest the creek, damp air lets moss and lichen take hold around the edges of the frames.
Bungalow roofs are often fairly shallow, so the panels on them don’t shed dirt as well as those on steeper roofs. Grime gathers along the bottom edge of each panel, where rainwater runs off and dries.
Getting the most from village panels
A lot of Alresford’s panels went onto bungalows, where there’s a good, wide roof to fit an array. The downside of a shallow pitch is that dirt doesn’t run off well, so a band of grime forms along the lower edge of each row. Pollen from the creek-side woodland adds to it every spring.
If you check your generation app and see the figures dropping on bright days, a clean is often the simplest fix. We’ll also tell you if we spot birds nesting under the panels while we’re there.
Homes near the station and the newer infill houses often have panels too. Many bungalows on the post-war roads have panels facing south over their back gardens, often towards trees. In autumn, small leaf fragments and seeds collect in the gap between the panel and the frame and along the bottom edge.
Pure water, every time
We only ever use pure water on panels, never detergent. Tap water leaves marks as it dries; pure water doesn’t. We work gently around the frames and seals. Once rinsed, the panels dry in the air, clear and streak-free.
Checking your output
Most Alresford solar systems have an app or an inverter display showing how much they generate. Noting the figures on a few sunny days before and after a clean is the easiest way to see the difference. Heavily soiled panels usually show a clear improvement.
