Pricing tough roofs
Steep pitches, second-story roofs and panels that need extra safety setup take longer. Instead of guessing, add a percentage surcharge. Many companies use 10% to 25%, but set yours from your own job times.
Frequently asked questions
How much should I charge per solar panel?
$10 to $20 per panel is the 2026 national range. Price at the higher end for steep or tall roofs, heavy bird droppings or long travel.
Should I offer solar cleaning with window cleaning?
Yes. It uses similar pure-water equipment, and bundling it raises the value of each stop on your route.
