Safe drone cleaning
EWS use the latest cleaning technology to deliver safe, efficient and effective results at height. Our specialist vehicles carry advanced equipment designed to handle demanding exterior cleaning projects.
Using modern heavy-lift drones, we can clean windows and building façades without direct surface contact or manual scrubbing. This method provides a safer alternative to conventional access techniques while reducing the potential damage associated with excessive pressure.
By combining drone technology with specialist cleaning systems, we can tackle stubborn contamination and leave surfaces looking bright, clean and free from streaks. Our cutting-edge technology revolutionises cleaning at heights, making it safer, quicker, and more efficient than ever before.
Utilising heavy-lift drone development we are the only company in the UK that can offer both low-pressure and high-pressure cleaning when needed. At every job, we will have at least two fully qualified drone pilots, that have passed the rigorous CAA tests and requirements to be able to skillfully fly heavy-lift drones.
Our main cleaning process is non-contact softwashing using our specially formulated Biodegradable cleaning solutions, these will be adjusted on each job depending on the material and amount of contamination and dirt to clean. Once we have applied the correct solution this is left to work its magic for about 30 minutes, we then rinse off with pure heated deionised water to leave a totally clean and streak-free finish. Our solutions are not just cleaning the outside but also the root of the algae, resulting in a longer-lasting solution.
Our drone washing service is ideally suited for buildings ranging from three to fifteen storeys in height.
Soft Washing
Our biodegradable, environmentally responsible cleaning solutions work below the surface to target dirt, grime and the underlying causes of mould, mildew, algae and moss. By treating growth at its roots, the process helps delay its return, delivers longer-lasting results and reduces ongoing maintenance costs.
A specially formulated foam allows the cleaning solution to cling evenly to the surface. It is left for approximately 30 minutes, giving it time to penetrate deeply and break down stubborn dirt and organic growth.
Deionised Water
Deionised water is highly effective for specialist cleaning because it has been purified to remove minerals, salts and other impurities. Without these dissolved particles, the water readily attracts and lifts contaminants from the surface, helping to remove residual dirt and grime without leaving mineral deposits behind.
After softwashing a building, we complete the process with a thorough deionised-water rinse. This removes any remaining cleaning solution and helps prevent marks, streaks or residue, leaving windows and façades with a clear, polished finish.
Hot Water System
Hot water provides faster and more effective cleaning than cold water by softening stubborn dirt and breaking down grease more efficiently. It also helps loosen difficult deposits, such as bird fouling, from windows and building façades.
The principle is similar to washing dishes in warm water: heat makes it easier to lift and remove grime. Using hot water reduces cleaning time, accelerates drying and helps produce a clean, spot-free finish.
Power Washing
Most exterior cleaning projects can be completed effectively using softwashing and deionised water. However, areas affected by heavy staining, stubborn deposits or dense moss growth may occasionally require pressure washing.
When pressure washing is necessary, we use only the minimum pressure needed to treat the affected area, helping protect the building from unnecessary damage. Where appropriate, specialist cleaning solutions and hot water are also used to loosen contamination and further reduce the required pressure.
