Canopies & Unusual Structures
Entrance canopies, glazed structures, pedestrian bridges, architectural features and transport-related structures — fragile, curved or positioned over busy public areas, and assessed individually before we recommend a method.
Canopies & Unusual Structures
The awkward jobs others walk away from
Some structures simply do not suit ladders, poles or standard access. Glass and polycarbonate entrance canopies, covered walkways, pedestrian bridges, forecourt and station canopies, tensile roofs and architectural features all collect dirt and organic growth, but they are often fragile, curved or sit directly above people and traffic.
We look at each structure individually — materials, fixings, what sits beneath it and how the public use the space — then choose the safest practical method, from specialist poles and soft washing to drone cleaning where the site assessment shows it is suitable and permitted. Exclusion zones and timings are agreed in advance.

Our approach
The right method for every surface
We never rely on a single technique. Each project is assessed and the safest, most effective method is chosen for the building and its surroundings.
Individual assessment
Every structure is reviewed before we recommend a method.
Gentle cleaning
Low-pressure and purified-water methods for fragile materials and seals.
Public-area safety
Exclusion zones and timings agreed for walkways, entrances and transport areas.
Drone cleaning
Hard-to-reach and fragile surfaces cleaned without loading them, where suitable.

Is drone cleaning right for this site?
Unusual structures are where drone cleaning can really prove its value — but they also need the most careful planning. A remote survey, airspace assessment and site-specific exclusion-zone plan are completed before anything is agreed.
FAQs
Common questions
Can you clean glass canopies over entrances?
Yes. We agree a safe time and exclusion zone, then clean using methods suited to the glazing and seals.
Do you clean pedestrian bridges and transport structures?
Yes, subject to assessment. These usually need careful timing and exclusion zones, which we plan with the site owner.
