What affects your final price
No two homes are identical. These are the details we look at when we put your quote together:
- Number of panels in the array
- Roof pitch and height, or ground-mount versus rooftop
- How heavily soiled the panels are — bird droppings and baked-on pollen take longer
- Safe roof access for the crew
- Whether the array is split across multiple roof planes

Good to know.
How often should I clean my solar panels?
Once or twice a year for most Sacramento-area homes. Systems near farmland, construction, or heavy tree cover may benefit from quarterly cleanings.
Can't rain clean them?
Rain rinses loose dust but leaves behind pollen, sap, droppings, and mineral spots that actually block sunlight more over time.
Will cleaning void my warranty?
No. Our pure-water and soft-brush method meets every major manufacturer's guidelines.
Do you go on the roof?
Yes — safely. We use fall-protection gear and roof-safe equipment. Whenever possible, we clean from water-fed poles on the ground.
