Building owners and property managers are always looking for ways to reduce maintenance costs without compromising quality. Drone cleaning delivers both — dramatically lower costs and superior results.
The Traditional Cost Breakdown
Traditional high-rise window cleaning involves scaffolding rental ($15,000-40,000), rope access team wages ($5,000-15,000), insurance premiums, permits, and equipment. A typical 30-storey building costs $25,000-50,000 to clean.
The Drone Advantage
Drone cleaning eliminates scaffolding entirely. One certified operator, one drone, one day. The same 30-storey building: $8,000-15,000. That's up to 70% savings — money that goes straight to your bottom line.
Time is Money
Traditional methods take 2-4 weeks. Drones complete the job in 2-5 days. Less disruption to tenants, faster return to normal operations, and the ability to schedule more frequent cleanings within the same budget.
Hidden Savings
Beyond direct costs, drone cleaning reduces liability exposure (no workers at height), eliminates permit delays, and uses 80% less water than traditional methods — an increasingly important factor for ESG-conscious property owners.
