Solar Panel Cleaning in Thorrington
Thorrington is surrounded by farmland, with homes along the B1027, out at Thorrington Cross and down towards the tide mill on Alresford Creek. Every summer, harvest dust finds its way onto solar panels here. We clean panels across the village with pure water.
No surveys or estimates needed for most homes; it’s a per-panel price, shown below.

Harvest dust and road film
Ploughing in autumn and spring, and harvest in late summer, send fine soil into the air. It settles on panels as a brown film that rain mostly smears around rather than removing. Homes facing the B1027 also pick up a greasier traffic film from the main road, and birds feeding on the fields and along the creek add droppings.
Lanes, creek and outbuildings
Homes nearer the creek and the tide mill sit in damper air, especially on misty mornings, which helps grime and lichen cling to the frames. Most panels in the village are on bungalows and family houses at a comfortable height, and some properties also have panels on garages or outbuildings, which can be cleaned on the same visit at the same per-panel price.
A yearly clean, ideally after harvest or in spring, keeps most panels working well. If your generation app shows a drop on bright days, that’s usually the sign.
Larger systems
Some rural properties around Thorrington have bigger arrays than a typical home. Systems over 25 panels are quoted individually; tell us how many panels and where they are.
Customers often add panels on a garage roof. Ground-mounted panels in a garden or paddock are at an easy height and are cleaned the same way. Panels low to the ground also collect grass cuttings and soil splash, so they often benefit from more frequent cleaning.
Our method
We only ever use pure water on panels, never detergent. That means it lifts dust, pollen and salt readily and evaporates without a trace. The bottom edge of each panel, where grime collects, gets a careful clean. That’s all it takes: pure water and a careful hand.
Birds nesting underneath
Pigeons and other Thorrington birds sometimes nest in the gap under panels, bringing twigs and leaving droppings. If we see signs of nesting while cleaning, we’ll let you know so you can speak to your installer about it.

Each panel is £8 if you have 16 or fewer, or £7 each if you have 17 to 25. That makes 8 panels £64 and 24 panels £168. Above 25, we quote. Payment by card or direct debit.
