Pigeon Deterrent for Solar Panels in San Jose
Pigeons love to nest under rooftop solar arrays. We install metal mesh around the array to keep birds out. The mesh is secured to the panel frames with slide-clamp washers — no drilling into your panels, and once it’s on, it’s not going anywhere. We also offer other deterrent options.

San Jose Solar Panel Cleaning FAQ
The Santa Clara Valley’s heat, dust, and long dry season leave a film on panels that cuts into energy production. Most San Jose systems do best with a professional cleaning twice a year. Homes in dusty or high-pollen areas — from Evergreen to Blossom Hill — may benefit from more frequent visits.
No. We use custom-built soft brush rigs and purified water at low pressure and high flow — never high-pressure equipment that can scratch panels, damage seals, or void manufacturer warranties. Our methods are safe for your panels and mounting hardware.
Yes — bird droppings and lichen are among the most common issues we see on San Jose rooftops, from Willow Glen to Almaden Valley. Our purified-water brush system breaks down and removes droppings, lichen, and other stubborn buildup without harsh chemicals.
