Starting at $150.

Lincoln's rapid growth since 2000 means a large share of its housing, including much of Sun City Lincoln Hills, falls right around California's 2020 solar requirement threshold for new homes — newer sections built after 2020 are more likely to carry panels installed with the original build.
Hard water is the enemy of a solar panel wash, more than dirt is. Minerals left behind by hard water film over the glass and can hold onto grime just as much as they clean it off — so the water gets softened before it touches the panels, and the wash itself is brushes and water, not pressure or chemicals that could damage the coating. Pricing starts at $150 for a visit — that's the minimum even if there are only a few panels on the roof. Past that, it's $10 per panel. A steep roof pitch or a hard-to-reach second story raises the minimum to $200, regardless of panel count — the complexity of the roof is part of what sets the price, not just the number of panels. One thing we won't do: put a number on what a wash is worth to your electric bill. We don't measure output before and after a visit, so we don't know the actual gain for your roof — and neither does anyone quoting you a percentage from a marketing page. What we can tell you is what the wash removes: dust, pollen, and the mineral film that builds up between washes. What that's worth in kilowatts depends on your system, your roof, and your utility rate — none of which we can honestly guess. One thing we always check while we're up there: the roof underneath and around the panels. Moss tends to build up specifically in that spot, because the panels block direct sun and the area stays damp longer — so the roof under panels is often in worse shape than the exposed parts of the same roof. We wash whatever we can reach, but not every spot under a panel is reachable, and we won't claim to reach the center of every one. Cleaning the roof itself, where it needs it, is its own job — priced by roof cleaning, not the panel wash, and the price depends on the roof's condition.
Lincoln's rapid, recent growth means a mix of pre- and post-2020 construction relative to California's solar requirement.

What Solar Panel Cleaning includes — and what it does not

Included in the price

  • Panels washed with brushes and softened water — no pressure washer, no chemicals that could damage the coating
  • Dust, pollen, and the mineral film that builds up between washes removed from the panel glass

Not included

  • Cleaning the roof itself under and around the panels — priced separately as roof cleaning, based on condition

How we do Solar Panel Cleaning

  1. Price is set by panel count and roof complexity — a steep pitch or hard-to-reach second story raises the minimum, regardless of how many panels are up there.
  2. Water is softened before it touches the panels, so it doesn't leave the mineral film hard water would.
  3. Panels are washed with brushes and that softened water — no pressure washer, no chemicals that could damage the coating.
  4. We wash whatever we can reach, but not every spot under a panel is reachable — we won't claim to reach the center of every one.
  5. The roof underneath and around the panels gets checked while we're up there; cleaning it is its own job, priced separately as roof cleaning.

Solar array wash — about twenty panels in Elk Grove

The glass came out visually clean and even, with no leftover grime and no dried water streaks.

We looked the panels over first and confirmed there was no visible damage to the surface. Then the array was washed with soft tools and treated water — no high pressure, no abrasives, nothing that could scratch the coating.

Frequently asked questions

How is a solar panel cleaning priced?

$150 minimum per visit, then $10 per panel — steep or hard-to-reach roofs start at $200 regardless of panel count.

Do you work on any roof pitch?

Steep pitches and hard-to-reach second stories are more work, so they start at a higher minimum — we price based on what the roof actually requires, not a flat rate for every roof.

Is my Lincoln home more likely to have solar given how recently it was built?

Generally yes if built after 2020 — anything from before that falls outside California's solar requirement for new homes and would only have panels as a retrofit.

Do you pressure wash panels in Lincoln, including Sun City Lincoln Hills?

No — panels are washed with brushes and softened water everywhere we work, never a pressure washer.

Do you cover both Sun City Lincoln Hills and the rest of Lincoln?

Yes — all of Lincoln is in our service area, including Sun City Lincoln Hills and the rest of the city's newer subdivisions.

Is Lincoln part of your regular service area?

Yes — regular service, the same as anywhere else in the metro we work.
