Find everything you need to know about our solar panel cleaning below.
Professional cleaning ensures that your solar panels are thoroughly cleaned without causing damage. DIY cleaning with regular tap water or soap can leave residues that reduce efficiency. Mike uses a pure water system, which leaves panels spot-free and keeps them running at peak performance.
We recommend cleaning your solar panels at least once a year to maximise their efficiency and lifespan. However, if you live in a particularly dusty area, or if your panels are prone to bird droppings, more frequent cleaning may be beneficial.
Each cleaning includes a multi-point inspection of your panels and inverter, thermal imaging to detect hidden issues, and pure water technology that ensures a spotless, streak-free finish. For additional protection, we offer solar siphon drainage clips to prevent water and dirt buildup.
Solar siphon drainage clips help water drain off flat or inclined panels, preventing stagnant water and dirt buildup along the panel edges. This keeps your panels cleaner for longer, improving efficiency. We offer these clips as an add-on for just $4 each.
Yes, regular cleaning can improve solar panel efficiency by up to 25%. Dust, dirt, and bird droppings block sunlight, reducing the amount of energy your panels can produce. A professional clean removes all these obstacles, helping you save more on your energy bill.
Thermal imaging allows us to detect any hidden issues, such as hotspots or faulty cells, which could affect the performance of your solar panels. This early detection helps prevent costly repairs down the line and ensures that your system operates safely and efficiently.
While it's possible, DIY cleaning often uses tap water, which can leave mineral deposits and streaks that reduce panel efficiency. Mike’s professional service uses 0-contaminant pure water for a spotless finish, along with the right equipment to avoid damaging the panels.
Yes, we offer volume discounts for larger residential and commercial setups. For residential arrays with more than 40 panels, and for commercial properties with over 100 panels, we provide reduced per-panel rates. Contact us for a custom quote!
Yes, due to the extra labor and safety requirements for accessing two-story properties, the starting rate is higher, generally between $180–$200 for up to 20 panels. This ensures we can safely and effectively clean your panels without compromising quality.

Find everything you need to know about our Roof Washing below.
Most Mildura homes benefit from a professional roof wash every 2–3 years. The region’s heat, dust, and sudden downpours cause build-up that shortens your roof’s lifespan if left untreated.
Not when it’s done properly. We use a safe, low-pressure system that removes grime without stripping coatings or forcing water under tiles or panels. Every job is adjusted to suit your roof type.
Every roof wash includes a pre-inspection, low-pressure clean, moss and lichen removal, gutter edge rinse, and full clean-up.
Roof washing starts from $500 for single-storey homes. Final pricing depends on roof size, access, and condition, we provide free quotes before any work begins.
Dust and heat bake grime deep into roof coatings, while rain turns it into sludge that clogs gutters and damages seals. Regular washing prevents leaks, rust, and costly repairs later on.
Only when needed. Most cleans rely on pure water and gentle detergents to lift grime safely, protecting your roof and the surrounding garden areas.
Yes, all roof washing is fully insured and carried out with proper safety gear, harnesses, and procedures for both single- and double-storey homes.
Find everything you need to know about our gutter cleaning below.
In most cases, once or twice a year is enough, especially after autumn or a big dust storm. If you’ve got trees around your home or you’ve noticed overflow during rain, it’s worth booking more regularly. We recommend a clean every 6–12 months to stay ahead of any blockages.
We remove all debris from your gutters, check and clear your downpipes, inspect for signs of damage, and make sure everything flows properly. We tidy up afterwards, too, no mess left behind. You’ll get a fully cleared system and peace of mind before the next big rain hits.
Blocked gutters can cause serious water damage. In Mildura’s dry climate, dust and debris build up quickly, and when the rain comes, your gutters need to be ready. Overflowing water can damage your roof, walls, foundations, and garden beds. Regular cleaning prevents those costly issues.
Absolutely. When gutters are full, water backs up and can leak into your ceiling, rot fascia boards, or spill down exterior walls. Over time, that damage adds up, especially if it goes unnoticed. A simple clean-out can prevent a lot of headaches down the line.
Yes, we check and clear downpipes as part of most gutter cleaning jobs. There’s no point clearing the gutters if the water can’t drain properly. We test flow, remove any blockages, and make sure the whole system works like it should.
It depends on the size and height of your property, but we keep things fair and transparent. Most standard homes in Mildura fall within a set range. Give us a quick call and we’ll give you a ballpark figure over the phone or book in a quote. Prices starting at $180 for small apartments and homes.
If you’ve got the right safety gear and roof access, you can try, but it’s risky. Most injuries happen from falls off ladders. We’re fully insured, trained for height safety, and have the right gear to do it quickly and properly without damage to your roof or gutters.
We sure do. From shops and offices to schools and warehouses, we provide commercial gutter cleaning across Mildura and Sunraysia. Just let us know the size of your site and we’ll sort a tailored quote.
Late autumn and early spring are ideal, before winter rains hit or after trees have dropped their leaves. That said, if you’ve had a storm or you notice water spilling over, book a clean any time. Prevention is better than repair.
Yes, we clean all types of gutter guard systems. While guards help reduce debris, they don’t stop dust, seeds, and fine matter from building up underneath. We carefully clean around and under the guards to keep your system flowing properly. Given that gutter guard removal takes extra time and care, so it does come at a higher rate than a standard clean.
