Manly's marina setting, mature street trees and mix of renovated character homes make it a prime location for pigeon activity around solar panels. Shine Panel Care provides professional solar panel bird proofing in Manly — removing existing nests, cleaning affected panels, and installing 304 stainless steel mesh to permanently seal the gap pigeons use to nest. We use non-penetrative clips, so your roof and panel warranty stay completely intact. Upfront $23/m pricing and a 10-year mesh warranty on every job.
Manly sits right on Moreton Bay, and the foreshore environment draws large numbers of coastal birds throughout the year. Feral pigeons thrive alongside native species in Manly's leafy streets, using the canopy of established trees to move between properties before settling under solar arrays on tiled rooftops.
The suburb's mix of older character homes and recently renovated properties means solar panels often sit on roofs with larger gaps at the frame edge — easier for pigeons to access. Once nesting begins, the colony grows quickly. Droppings stain roof sheeting and tiles, nesting material restricts airflow under panels, and the noise becomes a daily issue for residents.
Salt air from the bay also degrades lower-quality mesh materials faster than inland suburbs — which is why we use 304 grade stainless steel with an epoxy coating on every Manly installation.
We install only epoxy-coated 304 grade stainless steel mesh — the right material for coastal suburbs where inferior products fail within seasons.
Non-penetrative clips attach to the panel frame only. Your manufacturer warranty stays intact.
All nesting material and debris is cleared before mesh installation — nothing left to attract birds back.
304 stainless steel with epoxy coating is built for coastal Brisbane. It won't rust or sag like cheaper alternatives.
