Solar Panel Cleaning in Riverside
Riverside has rooftop solar on tens of thousands of homes, and almost all of it is quietly underperforming. Between the everyday Inland Empire dust and the Santa Ana winds that push grit across the basin, panels in the Wood Streets, Canyon Crest, and Orangecrest pick up a haze of buildup that the eye barely registers but the meter feels. A neglected array can shed 15 to 25 percent of its output, and the homeowner keeps paying for power the panels are no longer making. Dutch Touch has cleaned solar across the region since 1991.
Professional Panel Washing
Rinsing panels with the hose backfires here. Riverside hard water dries into mineral spotting that blocks light as effectively as the dust, so the quick fix becomes the new problem. We use a purified water system that strips the buildup and dries the glass spotless, with no film, no streaks, and nothing left behind to drag production back down.
Trusted Solar Cleaners
A Riverside roof can be anything from a low single story in La Sierra to a steep two story in Mission Grove, so we come equipped for the pitch and the layout and work the panels safely from above. Most homeowners settle into a spring and fall schedule with us, which keeps the array near full output year round without guesswork.
We can take care of the rest of the home’s exterior in the same visit, and you can review how our solar cleaning works before booking. The work is done by the same family crew that has been at this since 1991.

Understanding Solar Panel Cleaning
Most homeowners assume the rain handles it, but a light rinse just spreads dust into a film and leaves mineral spots behind as it dries. Panels need a proper cleaning to actually recover lost output. A professional cleaning clears the soiling, restores the light hitting each cell, and pays for itself in the production you get back. After a clean, many systems jump noticeably the same month, which on a financed array is money straight back to your bill.
Protect Your Solar Investment
A solar system is one of the biggest upgrades you can make to a home, and dirty panels quietly chip away at the return on it every month. Regular cleaning keeps the array producing what it was designed to, protects the glass and seals over the long run, and keeps your payback on schedule. Call (909) 790-3097 for a free quote.

Boost the Output of Your Solar Array
Riverside gives solar plenty of sun, but the Santa Anas and the everyday basin dust leave a haze on your panels that the meter feels long before the eye does. Dutch Touch clears that buildup with safe, purified water methods that restore output and protect the money you put into the system.
Why it matters: soiled panels shed a real slice of their production, and on a financed array that is power you are paying for but not making. A proper cleaning brings the glass back to clear so the array captures the full sun and delivers the savings you signed up for.
It also protects the hardware. Replacing panels is expensive, and routine cleaning heads off the etching and damage that baked on grime and hard water leave behind. Our licensed and bonded crew lifts the soiling without scratching the glass or stressing the seals.
With more than 34 years across the Inland Empire, we bring the right gear and the safety training to every roof. You never climb a ladder or walk a roof yourself. We handle the access, the cleaning, and the cleanup, and keep a flexible schedule so a spring and fall cadence fits your year.
What Our Customers Say
Dutch Touch is great at what they do! I worked for them years ago, (during summers from college) and was impressed by how well this company is run. They are professional, honest, and caring to every client, regardless of the size of the job. During my time there we cleaned the windows of multi-million dollar mansions, single-wide mobile homes, commercial buildings, and whole colleges.
There is no such thing as a window that cannot be reached with them, and you’ll be amazed how much better your whole house looks with clean windows (and mirrors, lighting fixtures, etc.)
I will give one warning: once you hire Dutch Touch, you’ll probably become a customer for life. Every time I visit Lake Arrowhead, I see their red trucks parked outside houses I worked at years ago!
These guys are the real deal. My windows were a mess after we had some construction done in the backyard-dust and dirt over everything. My brother in law had just had his windows done by Dutch Touch and highly recommended them (he is a clean freak, so I trusted him). Called on a Friday and they were out Monday to give an estimate. Ended up booking an appointment ( first available was 2 1/2 weeks out – they are busy in July), but no problem.
Two guys came out ( they were early, but that was ok with me), clean, matching shirts, introduced themselves-very professional. They put on booties before entering the house and explained exactly what they would do. Great job on the windows and screens. They even were able to get rid of some hard water stains left by a wayward sprinkler.
Definitely will be using this company again.
