Specialist solar panel protection across the North East
Get pigeons out from under your panels — and keep them out.
The gap beneath a solar array is exactly the sort of sheltered spot pigeons look for — dry, dark, and out of reach of most predators. Once a pair settles in, you're usually dealing with early-morning cooing, droppings down the wall, nesting material clogging gutters, and birds coming straight back after they've been moved on.
Solar Panel Bird Proofing North East is an online enquiry service. Tell us what's happening at your property and we'll pass your enquiry to an independent local specialist who can assess the array, deal with any existing activity, and fit a mesh barrier around the perimeter to stop birds getting back in.
From an active pigeon problem to preventative mesh before birds move in — here's what independent providers in our network cover.

Roof types and bird pressure vary a lot across the region — a Victorian terrace with a chimney stack presents a different job to a modern semi with a single unbroken roofline. An independent provider will look at your specific property before recommending anything.

The gap under a panel isn't the same job as a gutter or a chimney. Providers in our network plan the work around protecting the array, not just bolting on a generic spike strip.
Enquiries are matched to independent providers working across Tyne and Wear, County Durham, Teesside and the surrounding towns.
If birds are already living under the panels, that gets assessed and dealt with before the perimeter is sealed — sealing an active nest in is not the aim.
Suitable for individual homeowners as well as landlords, property managers and businesses with larger arrays.
The gap beneath solar panels gives pigeons shelter from weather and predators while still providing easy access to the roof. Once they find a suitable spot, they can return repeatedly and may attract more birds.
A common approach is to secure purpose-made bird-proofing mesh around the exposed perimeter of the array. The exact method depends on the panels, roof and existing bird activity — an independent provider will assess this on site.
Yes, but existing activity needs to be assessed before the array is sealed. Active nests, eggs and dependent young can be subject to wildlife legislation, so removal has to be handled properly first.
The barrier goes around the accessible edge, not across the working face of the panels. Providers assess the installation before fitting to make sure the method suits the particular array.
Yes — enquiries for commercial solar panel bird proofing are welcome, including larger arrays where bird activity affects multiple sections of a site.
