Solar Panel Cleaning in Loures

About our service in Loures

A shed roof is where we are most likely to say no, and that deserves explaining. Long runs of panels on farm buildings are often fixed to old corrugated sheeting rather than to a modern deck. The material is brittle after decades in the sun, it gives way without warning under a foot, and it may contain asbestos, so we do not walk on it in any circumstances and we make no claim to assess what it is made of. Sometimes there is another way to the rows: a pole from ground level, a platform on hardstanding alongside the building, boards spanning to a purlin line. Where there is not, we say the roof cannot be worked safely and leave it, which serves everyone better than a repair bill. The dirt out there is agricultural. Fine soil blows off ploughed land and off the tracks every time anything drives down them, and it arrives in quantity; add chaff, straw dust and droppings from birds nesting in open eaves, and a large array greys over in weeks rather than months. It comes away the way everything does: demineralised water in volume, left to do the loosening, then a soft brush at controlled pressure, with a second wetting wherever the coating has baked hard. No pressure lance near the frames, no scouring pad on the glass, nothing chemical. How often to repeat it depends honestly on the setting, and a yard beside a working track sits at one extreme. The dependable marker for everyone is the end of the dry season, ahead of the high-output months, because rain in the meantime only carries the loose dust off and dries the rest into streaks. At the Sacavém and Moscavide end the roofs are conventional and the questions change: shared blocks where the roof is common property and the building manager arranges the access, flat commercial roofs where a site contact signs us in. Wherever we are, the limit on what we do holds. We are cleaners. Glass, frames, rails, the gap beneath the rows and the drainage are ours; the inverter, the DC wiring, the connectors and the protections are not, and no panel is lifted off its mounting. Cracked glass, delamination, a scorched connector, heat marking or cable that has been chewed gets photographed and referred to your installer or a certified electrician.
