Pigeons can return to a sheltered roof space repeatedly once they have established it as a safe place to roost. Solar arrays can be particularly attractive because the panels create cover while leaving enough space beneath them for birds to move around.
Their pigeon-proofing service focuses on identifying the accessible perimeter and protecting it appropriately. If pigeons are already using the array, that activity needs to be addressed before the perimeter is secured.
Effective pigeon proofing is about more than putting mesh along the easiest edge. The entire accessible perimeter must be considered, including corners, roof-profile changes and unusual gaps.
Independent providers consider where birds are entering, landing and spending time around the solar array.
Vulnerable perimeter gaps are protected to discourage pigeons from getting underneath.
Corners and awkward sections are treated carefully to maintain continuous protection.
| Service | Estimated Cost | Average |
|---|---|---|
| Residential pigeon proofing | Quoted individually | Varies by perimeter |
| Complex roof or array | Quoted individually | Varies by access |
| Commercial pigeon proofing | Site-specific quotation | Varies by project |
Pricing depends on the length and complexity of the array perimeter, roof access and the extent of existing pigeon activity.
Independent providers look at the behaviour and access points causing the problem rather than treating every array identically.
Independent providers pay attention to less obvious gaps as well as the most visible edges.
The provider's mobile coverage works throughout the North West.

Free — no obligations
Independent providers establish where pigeons appear to be entering or roosting.
The accessible edges and difficult gaps around the array are assessed.
Existing birds and nesting material are considered before access is restricted.
Appropriate perimeter protection is installed and checked.
