As the Founder of Pigeon Solar Panels, I bring over 10 years of industry experience. Along with our dedicated North West team, we provide solar panel cleaning, bird proofing and maintenance across Cheshire, Merseyside and West Lancashire.

We pride ourselves on doing things the right way—using pure deionised water and avoiding harsh chemicals to ensure your solar panels operate efficiently without voiding your warranty.

This page covers Wilmslow, Runcorn & Halton, Southport and Ormskirk. For the rest of the region, see all North West areas.

Towns We Cover in Cheshire, Merseyside & West Lancashire

Four towns, one local team.

Solar Panel Cleaning in Wilmslow

Bird proofing & cleaning, including Handforth, Alderley Edge, Styal and Prestbury

Wilmslow and Alderley Edge have many large detached homes with big arrays on complex roofs. We reach them on ropes without scaffolding and fit neat, low-profile proofing like SolaSkirt that suits the house.

Nearby: solar panel cleaning in Macclesfield.

Solar Panel Cleaning in Runcorn & Halton

Bird proofing & cleaning, including Runcorn, Halton Village, Castlefields and Sandymoor

Across Halton, from Runcorn’s estates to Sandymoor’s new builds, pigeons quickly find the gap under newly fitted panels. We clean, remove nests and seal the edge with mesh proofing.

Across the river: solar panel cleaning in Widnes.

Solar Panel Cleaning in Southport

Bird proofing & cleaning, including Birkdale, Ainsdale, Churchtown and Formby

Southport’s coastal homes, from Birkdale to Ainsdale, pick up salt and sand on their panels as well as bird droppings. We clean with deionised water and fit proofing that stands up to coastal weather.

Solar Panel Cleaning in Ormskirk

Bird proofing & cleaning, including Aughton, Burscough, Skelmersdale and Lathom

Ormskirk and the West Lancashire villages include plenty of farmhouses and rural homes with larger arrays. We clean and proof domestic systems, and take on farm roofs through our commercial solar cleaning service.

After having a solar array fitted in November I noticed almost immediately that pigeons were nesting underneath. There are quite a few companies that fit bird skirts. I came across Pigeon Solar Panels Ltd who specialise in bird skirting. Their website was the easiest to follow and had exactly what I was looking for. After speaking with Marcella who was very knowledgeable on the whole subject, the price was set and that’s what I paid. No hidden extra payments. The chaps that fitted the skirt were very chatty and you could tell they were genuinely interested in what they did. Skirt fitted Gutters cleared Panels cleaned Waste removed And all guaranteed I paid far less than some of the quotes I had and what an awesome job they did. The only downside was their popularity as I had to wait a month as they were so busy.

Outstanding service from initial enquiry through to on-site completion of the job. Advised and shown exactly what work was required with extensive photos before and after, went above and beyond by fixing a broken tile and trying to address some shoddy and poorly fitted guttering. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company and their excellent service.

We received an excellent service from beginning to end. Marcella provided us with all the information we needed prior to booking the "better than new" package and on the day Callum and Harry told us exactly how the job would proceed covering everything from Health & Saftey through to the photographs we would receive at the end. And the best thing was that the solar panels ended up looking better than new, so we got what we paid for. Thank you from a very happy customer.

What We Fix in Cheshire, Merseyside & West Lancashire

Coastal salt on the Sefton coast, farm dust in West Lancashire and pigeons everywhere else all cut the output of solar panels. Regular cleaning and proper bird proofing keep your system producing what it should.

Pidgeon Solar Panels

Coastal Salt in Southport

Panels near the Sefton coast pick up salt and sand. A deionised-water clean gets them back to full output.

Pidgeon Solar Panels

Large Homes, Big Arrays

Wilmslow and Alderley Edge homes often have large systems on complex roofs. Rope access handles them without scaffolding.

Pidgeon Solar Panels

New-Build Pigeon Problems

Pigeons find new arrays in Runcorn and Sandymoor quickly. Proofing early saves the mess.

Pidgeon Solar Panels

Farm & Rural Arrays

Around Ormskirk we clean and proof arrays on farmhouses and outbuildings.
