FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything Sydney solar owners want to know about bird protection before booking.
Sydney Gutter & Window Cleaners charges $22–$30 per linear metre of solar panel perimeter. A standard 3–4 bedroom home with a 6.6kW system typically has 8–15 linear metres, making most jobs between $176 and $450. We provide a firm quote before any work begins — no surprises on the day.
No — our installation method uses a clip-on system that attaches to the aluminium frame of your solar panels, not the glass, cells, or wiring. We do not drill into panels, pierce any components, or use adhesive that could damage frames. This means your manufacturer warranty remains fully intact. If requested, we can provide written documentation of our installation method for your warranty records.
We use marine-grade 316 stainless steel mesh with a UV-stabilised black PVC coating. It is rated to withstand Sydney's sun, heat, and coastal salt air without rusting, sagging, or discolouring. Our mesh carries a 10-year material warranty and is the same grade used in commercial solar installations. It is also rated to resist chewing by rodents.
Most standard residential jobs (up to 15 linear metres) are completed in 1–2 hours. This includes removing any existing nests, sanitising the area, and fitting the mesh. Larger strata or commercial jobs may take half a day. We always give you a realistic time estimate in your quote so you can plan your day.
No. The mesh sits around the perimeter of your panels — it does not cover the solar cells themselves. There is zero impact on sunlight absorption or panel output. In fact, most customers notice their panel output improves after installation because the nests and droppings that were blocking airflow and shading cells are removed.
Yes — on our Standard Home and Large/Strata packages, nest removal and sanitisation is included in the price. For small systems, nest removal is available as an add-on for a small additional fee. We remove all nesting material, treat the area with a biodegradable disinfectant, and then fit the mesh. We dispose of all waste and leave no mess behind.
Our mesh is sized to exclude all common nuisance birds found nesting under solar panels in Sydney, including pigeons, sparrows, starlings, and mynas. The mesh aperture is small enough to prevent even small birds from squeezing through, while still allowing full airflow under the panels for optimal cooling.
Our bird protection is entirely humane and non-harmful. The mesh acts as a physical barrier — birds simply cannot access the area and will move elsewhere. No traps, no chemicals, no spikes that can injure birds. This is the most recommended method by both solar installers and wildlife organisations for managing bird nesting under panels.
Our marine-grade stainless steel mesh is designed to last the life of your solar system — typically 15–25 years. We back it with a 10-year material and workmanship warranty. In Sydney's climate, the UV-stabilised coating prevents degradation from sun and salt air. No maintenance is required after installation.
Absolutely yes — and prevention is far cheaper than cure. Once birds discover a nesting spot under solar panels, they return every season and attract others. Removing an established colony, repairing chewed wiring, and cleaning panels can cost $1,500–$3,000+. Our protection starts from just $176 — a one-time investment that pays for itself many times over. Many of our best customers are new solar owners who want to protect their investment from day one.
