Daniel's promise
Your local Mentone solar panel cleaner
Daniel gives Mentone homeowners a fixed price, insured workmanship and a genuine commitment to treating older roofs with respect.
Mentone has a long residential history, with Edwardian and interwar homes and post-war houses sharing streets with newer townhouses and unit developments near Mentone station. Daniel cleans across that whole range himself. He's mindful that older terracotta roofs need a lighter touch than modern ones, and he takes the time to inspect and photograph each array properly.
- Harness and height safety on every job
- Pure-water brush — no detergents or pressure washing
- Fixed price agreed before he starts
Daniel does it himself
You booked Daniels Solar Cleaning, you get Daniel. No subcontractors and no trainees, ever.
Careful on your roof
Terracotta tiles on Mentone's older homes can be brittle, so Daniel steps with care and remains harnessed to height-safety gear on every roof.
Honest debrief
He tells you what he found — even when that means your panels didn't need doing yet.
Character homes
Mentone homes and what their solar panels need
Mentone's older character houses and newer townhouses bring very different roofs, and Daniel adjusts his footing, setup and pace to suit each one.
Older terracotta roofs
Period and interwar homes in Mentone often have original or aged terracotta tiles. Daniel treads lightly, avoids fragile sections where possible and photographs any cracked tiles he notices near the array.
New townhouse builds
Where older houses have been replaced by townhouses, roofs are taller and arrays smaller. Daniel's harness setup handles the height, and there's never a double-storey surcharge.
Established gardens
Mature trees are part of Mentone's appeal but can creep toward rooftops over time. The free condition inspection flags any new shading so you can plan pruning.
Often found in Mentone: A period home with a small array on a terracotta roof, where the owner wants the panels cleaned but is understandably worried about someone cracking tiles.
See the difference
Dirt you can't see is costing you power
That film isn't loose dust. It's bonded pollen, traffic soot and mineral residue — and rain doesn't shift it.
- Deionised pure water dries without spotting
- Soft brush only — safe on seals and coatings

Best times to book
When to clean solar panels in Mentone
Mentone homeowners usually find one of these four timings suits them best.
Pre-summer
Nov–Dec
Having your Mentone panels washed before summer clears months of dust and pollen, so the glass is clear for the sunniest stretch of the year.
Spring
Sep–Oct
Spring blossom and pollen from mature gardens settle on roofs quickly. A clean now removes that film alongside winter grime and includes a full inspection.
Autumn
Mar–May
Summer leaves dust and droppings dried onto the glass. Booking in autumn clears that buildup and checks the array before winter's lower sun.
After nearby renovations
Anytime
If a neighbour has renovated, demolished or rebuilt, fine dust can drift onto your panels. A clean once the work finishes brings the glass back to clear.
Mentone questions
Solar panel cleaning Mentone — FAQs
How much does solar panel cleaning cost in Mentone?
Daniel charges $140 for up to 6 panels, $150 for 12 panels and $170 for 14 panels, including GST. Beyond 14 you pay $5 per panel, so 18 panels are $190 and 28 are $240. Townhouses and double-storey homes cost the same, and the free condition inspection is always included.
Can landlords and strata managers in Mentone book a clean?
Yes. Mentone has plenty of units and townhouses, and Daniel works with landlords, owners corporations and property managers. He can organise access with tenants and email before and after photos plus condition notes for your records.
Will Daniel go up on a double-storey Mentone townhouse?
Yes. Daniel cleans from the roof itself, wearing a harness connected to height-safety equipment. Tall townhouses are priced the same as single-storey homes, and if an array can't be accessed safely there's no charge.
How often should I clean my panels?
Once a year works for most homes. If your roof sits under mature trees or you notice frequent bird droppings, you might book every six months instead. Daniel will tell you honestly what your panels need.
Do I need to be home in Mentone for the clean?
Not if there's side access to the back of the house. Daniel can come through the gate, complete the clean and inspection, and email your before and after photos the same day.
Can I add gutter cleaning to my booking?
Yes. Gutter vacuum cleaning can be added to any solar panel clean, and doing both together gives you 10% off the gutters. It's especially handy for homes with large established trees nearby.
Can Daniel stop birds settling around my Mentone panels?
Droppings are cleaned off as part of every job. If birds are persistent, Daniel can quote for mesh bird proofing fitted around the array's edges, which helps keep them from settling and returning.
What is included in the free condition inspection?
Daniel checks for cracked glass, lifted seals, loose clamps and new shading from trees or nearby building work. He photographs anything worth noting and sends it with your before and after photos on the day of the clean.
