I've got a price in mind but I couldn't possibly divulge it on an open forum. I've spent many years calculating the correct mathematical formula for pricing jobs just like this so it would be business suicide to give away such sensitive trade secrets.

It depends heavily on height, access and whether it is still producing DC current despite being turned off. As no one else has come up with a total job price, I will say £100 every six months to maintain maximum efficiency.

Why not take a before and after pic and put it on your web page where you claim to be professional and highly trained.

I wouldn't quote as I'm not experienced enough at cleaning solar panels... Although I clean a lot of skylights - Isn't it just the same???

No mate, I'm not highly trained. I have no training at all actually as there is no training course available. Hang on, that gives me an idea.... ;D

Stay away from it. Put a water fed pole near that and you will die.
