How we work out the metres: we assume standard panels about 1 m wide and 1.7 m tall, mounted portrait and side by side, with mesh fitted right around each row. A row of 10 panels is about 24 m of mesh, so 20 panels in two rows is about 48 m. This is an estimate. The final price depends on the metres of mesh needed. We check it with a quick phone call and a look at your roof online. No site visit needed. A solar clean booked with bird proofing is quoted separately, also 10% off.
Sound familiar?
Pigeons love the warm, dry gap under solar panels. Once a pair moves in, they are hard to shift. Here is what Sydney solar owners deal with every day.
We get it
Birds under your solar panels are noisy, messy and destructive. Left alone, they damage your system and your roof. We fix the problem quickly, safely, and for good.
Nests, feathers and droppings build up under the panels, and the mess washes into your gutters. It builds up quietly until it is a big job to clear. Mesh stops it before it starts.
Pigeons nest most in spring and summer, and once they have settled in they keep coming back. The sooner the gap is sealed, the smaller the job and the less mess there is to clear.
Get a quote, say yes online, and we come to you. You don't even need to be home. We clear the nests, fit the mesh, tidy up, and send before and after photos. One visit, done for years.
We take care of the whole job. No climbing on the roof, no nest mess to deal with, and no birds coming back next spring.
Every Vero bird proofing job follows a checklist so nothing gets missed. Here is what our team does on every visit.
Testimonials
Getting your panels bird-proofed should be easy. It takes three simple steps to go from asking for a quote to a bird-free roof.
Step 1
Fill out the quote form or give us a call. Tell us about your home and your suburb. We send you a clear quote with no hidden fees. You don't have to commit to anything.
Step 2
We give you a quick call to check the details, then send your quote by text and email. Read it and say yes with one click. No paperwork, no fuss.
Step 3
Tell us the days that suit you. We confirm your booking with you, then send a reminder the day before and a text when we are on our way. No surprises.
We fit a black UV-stabilised mesh all the way around the edge of your panels. It clips under the panel frame, so there are no screws, no glue and no drilling. First we clear out any nests, feathers and droppings. Any eggs or chicks are moved to a safe spot. Once the mesh is on, the birds have no way in.
We charge by the metre of mesh around your panels: $33 a metre for a single-storey home, $38 for two storeys and $35 for strata. Prices include GST and there is no minimum charge.

It is the distance around the outside edge of your panels. Panels are about 1 metre wide and 1.7 metres tall, so a row of 10 panels needs about 24 metres of mesh around it, and 20 panels in two rows is roughly 48 metres. Our price calculator works it out from your panel count and layout. We confirm the exact figure by phone with a look at your roof online, so there is no site visit.
No. The mesh clips under the panel frame. Nothing is screwed, glued or drilled into your panels or your roof, so your warranty stays as it was. It also does not touch the glass or the wiring.
About 10 years. The mesh is UV-stabilised for the Australian sun, so it does not go brittle or rust. It needs no upkeep. If a clip ever works loose, tell us and we will come back and fix it.
No. The mesh stops birds nesting under the panels, which is where the real damage happens. Birds flying past can still leave droppings on top. That is why many people book a solar panel clean at the same time, and get 10% off both.
Mesh. It closes off the gap under the panels completely and looks tidy from the ground. Spikes are good for narrow ledges and the tops of downpipes where birds like to sit, but they cannot seal the space under a solar array.
If you hear cooing, see pigeons sitting on your roof most days, or notice feathers and droppings near the panels, yes, and the sooner the better. Once pigeons settle in they keep coming back, and every week adds more mess to clear. If you never see birds on your roof, you can probably wait.
No problem. We clear out the nests and the mess first, move any eggs or chicks to a safe spot, then fit the mesh so the birds cannot get back in. The clean-up is included in the price.
Most homes take 3 to 4 hours, up to 5 for a big system or a lot of nest mess. You don't need to be home. We work with a helmet, a harness and a rope tied to your roof, and we leave the roof and the ground tidy.
We don't offer a formal written warranty, but we stand by the job. If a bird finds a way in or a clip works loose, let us know and we will come back and fix it.
We call you back, usually within the hour during work hours, to check a few details, like how many panels you have and how they are laid out. We work out the price from the call and a look at your roof online, so there is no site visit. Your quote comes by text and email. It is good for 15 days. You can say yes online and pick a day, usually within two weeks.
Nesting season is here
Pigeons nest most in spring and summer. Every week they stay is more mess to clear. We can usually fit you in within two weeks, so tell us if it is urgent. Book online or call us today.
