FAQs

How often should a solar farm be maintained?

Most solar farms require at least bi-annual visits, timed around vegetation growth and energy output goals. We offer tailored schedules built around site performance and environmental conditions.

Is solar panel cleaning really necessary in the UK?

Absolutely. Rain alone isn’t enough—especially near agriculture, coastlines, or urban roads. Dirty panels can lose up to 20% efficiency. Regular cleaning protects long-term ROI.

Do you handle urgent site clearance for solar contractors?

Yes. We’ve responded to last-minute contractor calls requiring immediate tree or vegetation clearance before tankers or engineers arrived on site.

Why hire an arborist?

Hiring an arborist is a decision that should not be taken lightly, as proper tree care is an investment that can lead to substantial returns. Poorly maintained trees can be a significant liability and therefore a professional should always be consulted when approaching the idea of taking care of them.

Arborists are knowledgeable about the needs of trees and are trained in removing them safely and securely. Lawinds is insured with a £5 million public liability insurance policy covering any damage created by the trees being worked upon and keeping you and your property safely insured when carrying out work for you.

Do you remove all the brush/logs created on a job?

Yes, depending on what is agreed upon in our initial quote we will always offer a removal of all brush and chopped wood created. however , if you desire to keep the wood chippings we produce for your own personal use or the logs we create for fires etc. we will let you know what options are available

during our free quotation process.
