Mid & High-Rise Cleaning

What’s the point of having a spectacular view if your facade and windows are dirty or covered in grime?

Our IRATA-certified rope access team delivers safe, efficient, and thorough cleaning solutions for mid- and high-rise buildings, restoring your building’s appearance while improving natural light and overall presentation.

We use advanced, industry-leading cleaning products and systems designed to deliver a streak-free finish while helping protect glass, surfaces, and finishes over time. Depending on the building and surface type, we combine rope access techniques, pure water systems, and high-pressure washing for optimal results.

Our pure water cleaning system uses 100% purified water, delivered through carbon extension poles, to effectively remove dust, dirt, and airborne pollution without leaving residue behind.

High-pressure power washing is also a popular option, especially when bundled with window or facade cleaning, as it removes built-up grime, mold, and environmental buildup that standard cleaning cannot address.

And while we’re up there, we don’t just clean. We also take a proactive approach to your building’s condition by:

  • Checking for visible cracks, leaks, or surface damage
  • Performing anchor point safety inspections
  • Flagging any issues that may require further attention

This means your building not only looks better, but potential problems can be identified early, before they turn into costly repairs.

Height Safety Design, Installation & Certification

We are qualified and experienced high access safety system designers and installers who will customise a safety system to suit your building. This includes:

  • Safety anchor points for roof access with harnesses.
  • Rope access anchor points, davit systems and rigid rails for abseiling teams.
  • Other high access equipment such as, static line, access hatches, guardrails, walkways and rung fixed ladder.

We only use products that are engineered and tested in Australia to meet or exceed Australian Standards. Where available, components of our height safety systems come with a 10-year warranty against faulty materials or manufacturing. Plus our range of safety anchors are suitable for both metal and concrete roofs.

Once your anchor point safety system is installed, we can immediately check, test and certify it to ensure it is safe for immediate use.

We work with Kattsafe products to maximum safety and minimum fuss:

We can conduct either Proof Load or Verification Tests and apply durable compliance anchor labels, ensuring your system remains safe and operational.

While we are conducting your anchor point certification inspections, we will also check all components of your building’s safety system.
