The exterior of your commercial building should impress clients, tenants, and visitors. Clean, sparkling windows, seen from inside and out, and pristine building surfaces can convey an image of professionalism and detail-oriented behavior. However, maintaining that polished appearance shouldn't involve risky operations, extended disruptions, or budget-breaking expenses. Aqua Drone uses cutting-edge drone technology to clean commercial windows and buildings without the hazards and costs associated with conventional methods.
The traditional way to clean high-rise windows hasn't changed much in decades. Climber crews dangle from ropes, swing stages suspend workers outside buildings, and scissor lifts and boom lifts block access and create safety zones. These methods work, but they come with significant drawbacks that building managers and property owners know all too well.
Safety concerns top the list. Workers operating at dangerous heights face risks every day, and building owners bear the liability. One accident can result in serious injuries, legal complications, and devastating insurance claims. Equipment failures, weather changes, and human error all pose constant threats.
The operational impact extends beyond safety. The traditional cleaning process requires extensive setup time, disrupting tenants and blocking building access. Sidewalks close, parking garages are restricted, and loading zones are inaccessible. Cleaning takes a considerable amount of time since crews work section by section, often taking several days to complete.
There's also the cost factor to consider. Besides equipment rentals, you're also paying for insurance for high-risk work, multiple crew members working extended hours, traffic control and safety personnel, and potential liability exposure. Window cleaning is one of the most expensive maintenance expenses for property owners.
Today, building owners are fighting with OSHA more than ever. Many are turning to spending somewhere in the tens of millions of dollars on BMUs (Building Maintenance Units). And then there are the smart and lucky ones to discover.
Aqua Drone is built on the expertise of founder and CEO Jim Goss, who brings decades of building system knowledge and industrial maintenance experience earned throughout a long and highly technical career in the elevator industry. Using drone-powered cleaning technology, we eliminate these challenges while delivering superior results. Through technology, we are transforming commercial window cleaning into a safer, faster, and more cost-effective process.
We offer comprehensive cleaning services for commercial buildings, including:
Every commercial project begins with a site evaluation. Our team evaluates your building's height and architecture, determines access points and restrictions, all possible safety concerns then creates a detailed cleaning plan. Service is scheduled during times that minimize tenant impact in coordination with property management.
Our service team arrives with all necessary equipment, including pedestrian stations with safety ribbon and automobile traffic routing cones, and conducts pre-flight safety checks, sets up the work area, and performs the cleaning precisely.
