Serving Hesperia and the High Desert$450 covers up to 12 panels. $50 a panel after that. Everything else is included, and here is the math.
Pigeon proofing quotes range from a few hundred dollars to well over a thousand, and the difference is usually what is left out. Ours includes the cleanout, the sanitizing, the mesh, the spinners, a panel wash and a roof wash. Below is what that adds up to for real array sizes.

The base price covers 10 to 12 windows on a single story or 18 to 20 on a two story. Past that it's more glass, more screens and more tracks to do right, so it's a flat $39 more, single or two story.
One flat $49 for every window inside the house, with the tracks vacuumed and wiped dry. Most companies charge by the window for inside work. We're already there with the water and the tools, so doing the inside costs you far less than a separate visit.
Big custom homes vary a lot. Extra panes and screens are counted on site or from a satellite view, and inside and out can run $499 to $599 on some homes. You get the exact price from Tony before anything starts, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get. More light in every room, a clear view, screens and tracks that slide the way they should, and glass that lasts because hard water never gets the chance to etch it.
Why now. Dust and sprinkler overspray build up fast up here. A cleaning every 3 to 6 months keeps hard water from setting into the glass.
Cheaper crews screw or bolt mesh into the panel frame or the roof. Every hole is a spot for water and a reason for a solar company to deny a warranty claim. Our clips grip the inner lip of the frame, hold in High Desert wind, and come off clean if a panel ever needs service.
$450 covers up to 12 panels. Each panel past that means more mesh, more clips, more cleanout under the array and one more panel to wash, so it's $50 a panel. Set your count in the panel box below.
2 to 3 spinners come free. A spinner's flash covers the side of the roof it faces, and a ridge blocks it, so bigger roofs or roofs with birds on both sides usually need one more. Tap "See what the spinners do" to watch it in 3D.
What you get. Birds out for good, nests and droppings hauled away and the area sanitized so the smell goes too, panels and roof cleaned, mesh clipped to the frame so nothing voids your panel warranty, and a 2 year pigeon free warranty in writing.
Why now. Nests only get bigger. The longer the birds stay, the more there is to clean out and haul off, and that's the biggest swing in the price.
What you get. Panels that make what they're rated for, and a look over the whole array for damage, loose wiring and birds while we're up there. $7 a panel, dried spot free.
Why now. There's almost no rain up here to rinse panels, so the dust stacks up and your output drops a little more every month.
The same class of mesh your builder used, installed and tensioned right. Clearest view and good airflow. Fine for shaded windows.
Heavy vinyl coated polyester, 5x stronger and far more UV stable. Takes desert sun, wind and pets without going brittle.
When a frame is bent, loose or missing corners, new mesh won't sit tight in it. We rebuild the frame to fit your window with new corners and clips, so the screen snaps in and stays. $10 a screen, with either mesh.
What you get. Air in and bugs out, a clearer view from inside, screens that pop in and out easily, and a 2 year warranty on the mesh.
Why now. UV runs about nine months a year up here. Builder mesh goes brittle, then the wind finishes it off.
Hard water is minerals bonded to the glass, so each pane is treated and polished by hand, pane by pane. We test one pane free first so you see the result before you decide on the rest.
When your promos change, we take the old sticker off clean and put the new one up straight while we're there, $10 a sticker. You bring the stickers, we handle the glass.

The base price covers the whole job on a typical single story array. Cleanout, mesh, 2 spinners, panel wash and roof wash, all in.
$450 plus 8 panels over 12 at $50 each. The larger arrays in Hesperia's Ranchero tracts and Apple Valley land here, with 3 spinners free.
$450 plus 18 panels at $50. Two story homes with two roof planes usually need an extra spinner or two at $50 each so both sides are covered.
The cleanout is the biggest part of the labor. Nests, droppings and debris come out from under every panel and get hauled off, and the area is sanitized so the smell goes with it. A roof with a year of nesting can take half a day before any mesh goes on.
The mesh is rigid, rust resistant steel, cut to the array and held by clips that grip the lip of the panel frame. Nothing is drilled or screwed, so your panel warranty stays intact. Then the panels get washed with purified water and the roof gets a soft wash, which on their own would be $7 a panel and from $599.
Two to three reflective spinners go on the roof vents free, depending on the size of the roof. Extra spinners are $50 each, and the 3D above shows exactly what one covers and why a ridge needs two.
Panel count is the main one, at $50 a panel past 12. Roof shape is the second: an array split across the front and back of a two story usually wants an extra spinner so both sides get the flash. The third is how long the birds have been there, which changes the cleanout time but not the price. We quote the number and stick to it.
What does not change it: tile versus shingle, one story versus two, or how many birds are on the roof today.
Droppings are acidic. A year on concrete tile leaves staining that does not fully come back, a year on the panels blocks whole cells and the output loss shows in your solar app. Pigeons raise more than one brood a season, so the flock on your roof next spring is bigger than the one there now, and the cleanout with it.
A 2 year pigeon free warranty comes in writing with every job. Book on our website and the day is 10% off.

$450 for up to 12 panels, then $50 for each panel over 12. That includes the cleanout, sanitizing, rigid mesh clipped to the frame, 2 to 3 spinners, a panel wash and a roof wash. A 20 panel array is $850, a 30 panel array is $1,350.
Usually the cleanout or the roof wash is missing, the mesh is plastic or chicken wire, or it is screwed into the frame. Ask what happens to the nests, what the mesh is made of, and how it is attached. The cheap job is the one we get called to redo.
Two to three are included depending on the size of the roof. Extras are $50 each. A two story with panels on both sides usually wants one more so the flash reaches the back.
Yes. The number in the tool above, or the one Tony texts you after a look, is the price. Nothing gets added on the day, including if the cleanout takes longer than expected.
Two years pigeon free, in writing. If they get back under the panels in that time, we come back.
Ranch, Classic and Lake estate are here for older and custom homes, so the job shows on a home like yours.
The same class of mesh your builder used, tensioned right. Clearest view, good airflow, fine for shaded windows.
