Mission // Exterior cleaning Ottawa & Eastern Ontario

Cleaner. Safer. Smarter.

We wash warehouses, dealerships, plazas, business parks and homes across Ottawa and Eastern Ontario with an industrial cleaning drone. It covers 300 square feet a minute while every human stays on the ground. No lifts. No scaffolding. No one at height.

Begin ascent

The problem ALT 8 M

For a century, cleaning a building meant hanging a person off the side of it.

Swing stages, boom lifts, rope access. Days of rigging, real fall risk and a crowd of equipment on your property. Drag the line and watch the job change era.

What we clean ALT 26 M

Pick a rooftop.
We have washed one like it.

Our sweet spot is low-rise, open-site property. Tap a building and the drone will show you what it does there.

Buildings & façades

Buildings & façades

Glass, brick, metal, composite, EIFS and stucco. We soft wash or pressure clean to suit the surface, on warehouses, dealerships, plazas and low-rise buildings.

The Sherpa.
Built to wash buildings.

Built by Lucid Bots, the Sherpa is the most widely deployed commercial cleaning drone in North America. It is a heavy-lift machine that soft washes or pressure cleans from the air, fed by a long-range hose and flown by a two-person ground team. No swing stage required.

RO/DI pure-water rinse

Reverse-osmosis and deionized water dries spot free, so glass and panels finish crystal clear with no chemical residue and no hand detailing.

Keeps it airborne

Ground pump & long-range hose

A trailer-mounted pump and filtration unit feeds the Sherpa through a long-range hose, so the drone stays in the air and keeps cleaning without stopping to refill.

Steady at height

Stabilized flight & ground control

A trained pilot flies with GPS-assisted stability and a ground spotter, holding the drone steady against the facade even in real Ottawa wind.

How a job runs ALT 34 M

Four waypoints.
Photos to spotless.

  1. 01

    Assess

    Send a few photos or your address. We size up the access, the surfaces and the height, then confirm a drone is the smarter call.

  2. 02

    Quote

    You get a clear, itemized quote with no obligation, and none of the scaffolding or lift-staging costs the old way piles on.

  3. 03

    Clean

    A two-person crew shows up and stays on the ground. The drone does every bit of the climbing, soft washing or pressure cleaning as it goes.

  4. 04

    Done

    You get a spotless exterior, plus before and after photos for your records if you want them. A maintenance plan keeps it looking that way.

Coverage ALT 38 M

Based in Ottawa.
Flying all of Eastern Ontario.

If your property sits inside this sweep, we can be on site with the drone, the pump trailer and a two-person crew. Outside it, ask anyway. We travel for the right job.

Straight talk, before you book

  • We fly under Transport Canada RPAS rules, authorized below 40 metres. Low-rise is our lane, downtown towers are not.
  • Flying is weather dependent. If wind or rain would compromise the result, we reschedule instead of forcing it.
  • Certification numbers, insurance limits and WSIB details go to you in writing before any job. Just ask.

You ask.
We answer straight.

The questions every property manager and homeowner radios in first.

Q01 // GROUND Is drone cleaning safer than a swing stage or scaffolding?
A // SKYRISE

Far safer. Swing stages, boom lifts and rope access all put a worker high up in the air, and that is the single biggest risk and liability in exterior cleaning. With SkyRise the drone does the climbing while our two-person crew stays on the ground, so the fall risk simply goes away.

Q02 // GROUND Is it safe for my building?
A // SKYRISE

Yes. A trained pilot flies the drone with a ground spotter, using soft wash or controlled pressure matched to each surface. Nothing gets bolted to your roof, no scaffolding leans on your walls, and no platform swings past your windows.

Q03 // GROUND Are you licensed and insured?
A // SKYRISE

SkyRise operates under Canadian drone (RPAS) regulations and carries the coverage commercial exterior work calls for. We confirm exact certification numbers, insurance limits and WSIB details in writing before any job. Just ask and we will send the current paperwork.

Q04 // GROUND Which buildings and surfaces can you clean?
A // SKYRISE

Glass, brick, metal, composite, EIFS, stucco, vinyl and fibre-cement siding, roofs and solar panels. Our sweet spot is low-rise, open-site properties: warehouses, distribution centres, dealerships, retail plazas, business parks, self-storage and low-rise condos, plus homes. If your property is a better fit for another method, we will tell you straight.

Q05 // GROUND How high can you go?
A // SKYRISE

We hold Transport Canada authorization to fly cleaning operations at heights under 40 metres, which is about 131 feet. That covers pretty much every warehouse, dealership, plaza, business park and low-rise building in the region. We do not take on downtown tower work right now, and if a property sits outside our envelope we will say so up front.

Q06 // GROUND What about weather and wind?
A // SKYRISE

Flying is weather dependent. We plan around wind, rain and temperature limits so the result comes out safe and clean, and we will happily reschedule before we will fly in conditions that compromise either one.

Q07 // GROUND How is a job priced?
A // SKYRISE

Every job is priced on its own, based on surface area, access and height. With no scaffolding to build and no lift to rent, drone cleaning is usually faster and easier on the budget. Send a few photos or your address and you will get a clear, itemized quote with no obligation. Recurring maintenance comes at a preferred rate.

Q08 // GROUND How fast is it compared to the old way?
A // SKYRISE

Much faster. There is nothing to erect and nothing to rig, so the crew unpacks and flies, covering roughly 300 square feet a minute. Most jobs wrap in a fraction of the time a rope or lift job would take, and with far less disruption for the people inside.
