"We were worried about voiding our solar warranty. They explained how their specialized clips work without drilling into the panels. Very professional team, left the site spotless."

"They found dead pigeons and huge nests under the panels causing our gutters to overflow. They cleared it all out, washed it down, and fitted the mesh. The birds tried to come back but couldn't get in."

The Hidden Danger

Why Pigeons Target Solar Panels

Solar panels provide the perfect shelter—warm, safe from predators, and protected from rain. However, allowing pigeons to stay puts your home at serious risk.
Risk Cards
Electrical fire hazard
Electrical Fire Hazard
Birds pack highly flammable dry twigs and debris directly underneath your panels, right against hot electrical wiring and inverters.
Solar panels reduced efficiency
Reduced Efficiency
A build-up of highly acidic pigeon droppings (guano) on the surface of your panels blocks sunlight, drastically reducing energy output.
Roof and gutter damage
Roof & Gutter Damage
Corrosive droppings eat through colorbond. Nests wash into gutters, causing blockages and internal roof flooding during heavy rain.
Noisy birds and bird mites
Noise & Bird Mites
The constant scratching and cooing at 5:00 AM disrupts sleep. Nests also harbor biting bird mites that can migrate into your home.

Specialized UV Clips
Zero Drilling (Warranty Safe)

We use specialized UV-stabilized nylon clips that hook onto the underside lip of the solar panel. We NEVER drill into your panels, keeping your warranty 100% intact.

PVC Coated Wire Mesh
PVC-Coated Galvanized Steel

Our mesh is made from heavy-duty steel wire coated in thick black PVC. It won't rust, withstands cockatoo attacks, and its black color makes it practically invisible from the street.

Airflow under panels
Maintains Maximum Airflow

Solar panels need airflow underneath to cool down and operate efficiently. Our mesh keeps birds out while allowing perfect ventilation to prevent overheating.

Our Installation Process

How We Proof Your Solar Panels

Process Steps Cards

1. Heavy Cleaning
Before installing mesh, we get under the panels. We manually remove all nesting materials, dead birds, and hardened guano. We also clear your immediate gutters.

2. Sanitization & Mites
Bird nests crawl with mites and lice. We treat the roof area beneath the panels with a commercial-grade biocide to kill bacteria and prevent mites entering your home.

3. Mesh Installation
We custom-cut PVC-coated steel mesh to follow the exact contour of your roof tiles (corrugated or terracotta). We secure it firmly using non-penetrating solar clips.

4. Handyman Roof Check
Because we are licensed handymen, we do a visual inspection while on the roof. If we spot slipped tiles or damaged flashing caused by birds, we can often fix it on the spot.

Common Questions

Solar Pigeon Proofing FAQ

FAQ Accordion

We use a specialized UV-coated galvanized steel mesh. This mesh is custom-cut to the profile of your roof tiles and secured to the outer edge of your solar panels using non-penetrating nylon clips. This creates a solid physical barrier that stops pigeons, possums, and debris from getting underneath.

Absolutely not. This is the most important factor. Our specialized UV-stabilized nylon clips hook safely onto the underside lip of the solar panel frame. We NEVER drill, screw, or use adhesives on the panels themselves, ensuring your manufacturer warranty remains 100% valid.

Yes, a major part of our service is the heavy cleanout. We manually remove all nesting materials, dead birds, eggs, and as much hardened guano as physically possible from beneath the panels and the surrounding gutters before installing the mesh.

No. The bottom of the steel mesh is custom-cut and contoured by our technicians to rest gently but firmly against the specific profile of your roof tiles (whether corrugated iron or terracotta). It does not bear weight or scratch the roof surface.

No. We use premium galvanized steel mesh coated in thick PVC. Pigeons, possums, rats, and even cockatoos cannot chew through or bend this physical barrier. It provides a permanent exclusion solution backed by our 5-year warranty.
