Solar panel cleaning is an extremely state dependent service where most, if not all of the cleaners are in California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas and New Mexico.
Whether you’re starting out as an employee or you’re looking to start your own solar panel cleaning business, you can make a good amount of money every single hour for not that much work.
The average hourly rate for a solar panel cleaning employee is right around $18/hour here in the US. Many of the solar panel cleaning companies are smaller. Meaning, the primary employee is actually the owner.
Depending on your state, for example, California, you can make over $10,000k/month if you have the proper marketing strategies and equipment. The service as a whole is extremely needed. Here in the Bay Area, we do almost 20-30 clients every single month from Google Ads alone.
Yes, starting your own solar panel cleaning business can be extremely profitable. Once you’ve invested into the initial equipment, it basically comes down to branding and marketing.
Luckily, the service is very much in demand with a low amount of competition. You can get started for a little under $3,000 and begin making $6-7,000 a month fairly easily.
Another amazing thing about starting a solar panel cleaning business is that most of the customers can turn into repeat customers if you do an amazing job.
Invest in a CRM to track all of your clients and email/text them every 3-6 months to get the service done again.
