What is commercial exterior cleaning?

Commercial exterior cleaning involves the professional cleaning of building façades, windows, signage, roofs, solar panels, wind turbines, assets and other outdoor surfaces for businesses, offices and industrial facilities.

It removes dirt, mould, pollution and stains to maintain your building’s appearance, longevity, and safety.

How does drone cleaning work?

Drone cleaning uses high-powered, remotely operated drones equipped with water jets or soft-wash systems to safely clean hard-to-reach areas. It’s perfect for high-rise or large-scale buildings where scaffolding or lifts would be expensive or unsafe and also for hard-to-reach, unusually shaped and difficult to access buildings and assets.

Our licensed drone pilots provide precise, efficient cleaning with minimal disruption to your business.

What are the benefits of drone cleaning compared to traditional methods of cleaning?

✅ Enhanced Safety:  No need for scaffolding, heavy equipment, cherry pickers, anchor points or abseiling. Drones eliminate the risks associated with working at height, keeping both workers and your property safe.

✅ Faster Cleaning: Drones can clean large areas quickly, drastically reducing set-up time for cleaning, downtime and disruption to your business operations.

✅ Cost-Effective:   With less labour, no scaffolding, and minimal equipment setup, drone cleaning can significantly lower overall maintenance costs.

✅ Eco-Friendly: Our drones use water-efficient systems and environmentally friendly cleaning agents, reducing water waste and chemical runoff.

✅ Consistent Results: Advanced drone technology ensures uniform cleaning coverage and professional-quality results every time.

✅ Access to Hard-to-Reach Areas: Perfect for high-rise windows, façades, solar panels, roofs, and industrial structures where traditional methods are costly or unsafe.

✅ Minimal Disruption: Quick setup and efficient operation mean less interruption to your staff, tenants or customers.

Do you still offer rope access cleaning?

While our advanced cleaning drones are ideal for most high-access and large-scale jobs, some areas still require a hands-on touch.

That’s where our certified rope access technicians come in.

Our team is fully trained and qualified, equipped to safely and efficiently clean, inspect, and maintain building façades, windows, signage, and difficult-to-reach assets that can’t be accessed by drones.



Rope access allows us to perform precision cleaning and detailed inspections in tight or complex areas without the need for scaffolding or heavy machinery.

By combining drone technology with expert rope access services, Volare offers a hybrid cleaning solution that ensures every surface of your building is cleaned and maintained to the highest standard - safely, efficiently, and with minimal disruption to your operations.

Is drone cleaning safe for my building or asset?

Absolutely.

Our U.S.-built cleaning drones are designed with safety and precision at their core. They use low-pressure and soft-wash systems where required, making them suitable for delicate surfaces such as glass, cladding, painted façades, and solar panels.

Each clean is carefully calibrated to match the surface type and condition of your building or asset, ensuring a thorough result without the risk of scratching, etching, or water ingress.

Our drones are also equipped with stabilization sensors, geo-fencing, and obstacle avoidance technology, allowing them to operate safely around complex structures and sensitive areas. This means your property - from high-rise façades to heritage buildings - is always protected.

At Volare, safety is our top priority. We conduct site assessments before every job to identify surface materials, wind conditions, and access limitations, ensuring that the cleaning process is both safe and effective for your specific environment.

Do you offer maintenance services?

Yes!

Volare also provides a range of ancillary maintenance services - including painting, waterproofing, leak investigation and repair, glazing and concrete restoration.

We offer custom maintenance plans for ongoing cleaning of façades, assets, solar panels and signage to keep your assets in top condition all year round.

How often should I schedule exterior building cleaning?

For most commercial properties, scheduling an annual or bi-annual clean is usually sufficient to maintain a professional appearance and prolong the life of your building’s surfaces.

However, properties located in high-traffic areas, near busy roads, or in coastal regions may benefit from more frequent cleaning, such as quarterly maintenance, to prevent the buildup of dirt, salt, and grime that can accelerate wear and tear.

Additionally, it’s important not to overlook specialized cleaning needs, such as an end-of-lease clean to ensure the property is returned in pristine condition, or a completion-of-construction clean to remove dust, debris, and residues left behind after building work.

Tailoring your cleaning schedule to the specific demands of your property helps protect your investment, enhance curb appeal, and create a safe and welcoming environment for tenants, employees, and visitors.

Do you need scaffolding for drone cleaning?

No scaffolding is required for our cleaning services.

Our advanced US built drones can safely reach façades, roofs, and signage from the ground, eliminating the need for traditional scaffolding or elevated work platforms.

This not only reduces setup time and labor costs but also minimizes disruption to your building’s operations and surrounding areas. By using drones, we can efficiently access hard-to-reach surfaces while maintaining the highest safety standards for both our team and your property.

It’s a modern, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional high-access cleaning methods, delivering thorough results without the hassle or risk associated with traditional equipment.

Are you insured and licensed?

Yes - our company holds full public liability insurance and our drone operators are fully licensed by CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority).

We also comply with all WorkSafe WA regulations.

Do you provide cleaning services outside of Perth?

Yes, we provide professional commercial and industrial drone cleaning services throughout Western Australia - from metropolitan Perth to regional and remote areas.

Our advanced cleaning drone allows us to service a wide range of sites efficiently, regardless of location or accessibility.

Whether it’s large industrial facilities, high-rise buildings, solar farms, or regional infrastructure, our team delivers safe, consistent, and high-quality results anywhere in WA.

What’s the cost of commercial exterior cleaning?

Costs vary depending on several factors, including the building’s height, overall size, accessibility and the most suitable cleaning method for your surfaces.

To ensure fair and transparent pricing, we offer free site assessments and detailed quotes before any work begins.

This allows us to tailor our approach to your specific property needs while giving you complete clarity on costs - no surprises, just honest, upfront pricing for quality results.

Is drone cleaning weather dependent?

Yes. For safety and quality assurance, drone cleaning is never carried out during high winds, heavy rain, or storms.

Our team continuously monitors weather conditions and forecasts to ensure every job is completed safely and effectively.

If adverse weather arises, we simply reschedule to the next suitable window, ensuring optimal cleaning results without compromising safety or efficiency.
