Why Dunedin homes need this service
- Black PVC-coated mesh sealing the full roof-to-panel gap
- Marine-grade stainless fasteners for Gulf-side properties
- Nesting and droppings removed and the roof sanitized before sealing
Waterfront bird pressure plus older neighborhoods with mature trees gives Dunedin both problems. Perimeter mesh seals the gap against gulls, pigeons and squirrels equally.
Direct Gulf salt
Dunedin faces the Gulf across the Intracoastal with almost nothing in the way. Salt film is the primary soiling issue for the whole city.
Bird activity
Waterfront and marina bird pressure means droppings on outer module rows are routine.
Pollen and modest canopy
Older neighborhoods have mature trees adding a seasonal organic layer on top of the salt.
Small older homes with shingle and low-slope roofs, tile in Dunedin Isles and the newer sections, and low-slope commercial through the downtown core. Modest roof areas mean modest, efficient arrays.
Rigid galvanized steel mesh with a black powder-coat finish, sized to the exact perimeter of your array so it reads as part of the system rather than a bolt-on cage. The mesh is secured with stainless steel clips that grip the panel frame directly. Nothing is drilled into your roof and no penetrations are created that could later leak.
Guarding an occupied array just traps the problem inside. Every install starts with removing nests, droppings and debris from under the modules, sanitising the deck area, and checking for chewed conductors or damaged conduit while we have the access.
Dunedin sits outside Hillsborough County, so a $50–$100 travel fee applies depending on routing. Booking alongside a neighbour usually removes it.
