Domestic solar panel cleaning died off..........
« on: March 08, 2014, 01:49:17 pm »
I haven't cleaned panels for months.

Even my regular customers haven't called yet.

I have called a couple and they say its due to the amount of rain FFS

Has anyone else noticed the lack of jobs coming through...............

Done about 30 since January.  Don't worry.  It's still early doors.  When the sun starts shining, they will come...

I have one booked in next time I do their windows.I did them last year as well.I have around 10 customers a year that have them done.not a great deal of money in them but ok to supplement the regular window cleaning.

£30 for 30 mins work.I'm happy. ;D
price higher/work harder!

It would be good if it was possible to work out how much effecency is lost due to ditry pv panels. Work out how much it costs the customer and work a price from there.

I know and have explained this to customers. I am not expensive at all. £3 a panel on average. Min charge of £25
