Your Tesla Solar Roof represents a significant investment in clean energy and your home’s future. When ash, dust, and debris accumulate on those precision-engineered tiles, you’re literally watching money disappear from your energy production.
Here’s what happens when you get it cleaned right. Your tiles start generating at full capacity again. The difference is measurable—customers regularly see 5-25% production increases after professional cleaning, depending on buildup levels. That translates to real dollars back in your pocket.
But it’s not just about immediate gains. Regular professional cleaning prevents the mineral deposits and grime buildup that can actually shorten your roof’s lifespan. You’re protecting a 25-year investment with a simple maintenance step that Tesla specifically recommends.
We’ve been serving Corona and surrounding areas for over a decade, building our reputation on reliability and results. We’re not just another cleaning company—we understand the unique challenges Corona homeowners face with solar maintenance.
Our team knows how Corona’s dust patterns, seasonal winds, and occasional wildfire ash affect Tesla Solar Roofs differently than traditional panels. We’ve invested in specialized equipment and training specifically for Tesla’s integrated solar tile systems because we know one size doesn’t fit all.
When you choose us, you’re working with a fully bonded and insured local business that treats your home the way we’d treat our own. Our customers trust us enough to come back year after year, and many refer us to their neighbors because they’ve seen the difference professional cleaning makes.
We start with a thorough assessment of your Tesla Solar Roof, identifying areas with heavy buildup and checking for any potential issues. Safety is our top priority—we use professional-grade equipment that keeps our technicians secure while protecting your tiles.
Our cleaning process follows Tesla’s specific guidelines. We use telescoping soft brushes and deionized water, directing water flow downward to avoid spraying between tiles or into edges. No harsh chemicals, no abrasives, nothing that could void your warranty or damage those precision surfaces.
The deionized water we use isn’t just safer—it’s more effective. It acts like a dirt magnet, pulling away contaminants without leaving mineral deposits behind. This means your tiles stay cleaner longer, giving you better value from each cleaning. We complete the service with a final inspection and provide you with before-and-after documentation of the work.

Every Tesla Solar Roof cleaning includes a complete inspection of your system’s visible components. We’re looking for loose connections, damaged tiles, or debris in valleys that could cause problems down the road. It’s preventive maintenance that goes beyond just cleaning.
Corona’s environment creates specific challenges for solar roofs. We see everything from construction dust during building booms to ash from regional fires that can cut production by 80% or more. Our local experience means we know what to expect and how to handle it effectively.
Your service includes detailed documentation with before and after photos, so you can see exactly what we’ve accomplished. We also provide recommendations for optimal cleaning frequency based on your specific location and environmental factors. Most Corona homes benefit from annual cleaning, though some areas with heavier dust exposure may need service twice yearly.
Most Tesla Solar Roofs in Corona benefit from professional cleaning once per year, typically in late spring after the windy season. However, your specific location matters significantly.
If you’re in an area with heavy construction activity, agricultural dust, or you’ve experienced wildfire ash, you may need cleaning twice yearly. Corona’s dry climate and seasonal Santa Ana winds can create more debris buildup than areas with regular rainfall. We assess your specific situation during service and provide personalized recommendations based on your roof’s condition and local environmental factors.
Not when done properly with Tesla-approved methods, which is exactly what we use. Tesla actually recommends routine professional cleaning to maintain system performance and specifically advises against homeowners attempting to clean their own roofs.
We follow Tesla’s guidelines precisely: using telescoping soft brushes, directing water flow downward, avoiding spray between tiles, and never using detergents or abrasives. Our methods are designed to protect your warranty while maximizing cleaning effectiveness. We’re fully insured and provide documentation of our Tesla-compliant cleaning process for your records.
Production improvements vary based on how much buildup you have, but most customers see measurable increases. Light dust accumulation typically yields 3-5% improvements, while heavy debris or ash buildup can restore 15-25% of lost production.
Corona homeowners often see significant results because our area’s dust and occasional fire ash can create substantial efficiency losses. One customer reported their system jumped from 4 kWh to over 5 kWh daily production after cleaning—that’s real money back in their pocket. The exact improvement depends on your system size, current condition, and recent weather patterns, but the difference is typically noticeable within days of cleaning.
Tesla specifically recommends against homeowners stepping onto their Solar Roofs due to safety risks. The tiles can be slippery, especially when wet, and the consequences of a fall are serious.
Beyond safety concerns, DIY cleaning often misses critical areas or uses improper techniques that can damage tiles or void warranties. Tesla Solar Roofs require different care than traditional panels—the integrated design means you need specialized knowledge about water flow patterns and tile edges. Professional equipment like telescoping brushes and deionized water systems aren’t typically available to homeowners, and improper cleaning can actually make tiles dirtier faster by leaving residue behind.
Tesla Solar Roofs are integrated building materials, not mounted panels, which changes everything about how they should be cleaned. The tiles have specific edge designs and water flow patterns that require different techniques.
Traditional panel cleaning methods can damage Tesla tiles or force water into areas where it shouldn’t go. The spacing, angles, and materials are all different. Tesla tiles also have different surface treatments that require gentler cleaning agents and specific brush types. Many general solar cleaners don’t understand these differences and can inadvertently cause problems. We’ve invested in Tesla-specific training and equipment because we know these roofs require specialized care.
Tesla Solar Roof cleaning costs vary based on roof size, accessibility, and current condition, but most Corona homeowners find the investment pays for itself through increased energy production within months.
We provide free estimates because every roof is different. Factors affecting cost include system size, pitch of your roof, level of debris buildup, and accessibility. However, when you consider that heavy buildup can reduce production by 15-25%, and Corona’s average solar system produces thousands of dollars in annual savings, professional cleaning typically delivers positive ROI quickly. We’re transparent about pricing and provide detailed estimates that show exactly what’s included in your service.
