Scheduling Questions

How far in advance should I schedule services?

We recommend scheduling services 2-3 weeks in advance for standard projects. For larger buildings or complex projects, 3-4 weeks' notice is preferable. However, we understand that urgent needs arise, and we do our best to accommodate last-minute requests when our schedule permits.

How long does a typical cleaning job take?

The duration of a cleaning job depends on the building size, complexity, and services required. As a general guideline:

  • Small to medium buildings (up to 10 stories): 1-2 days
  • Large buildings (10-30 stories): 2-5 days
  • Skyscrapers (30+ stories): 5-10 days
  • Solar farms: 1-7 days depending on size

Our drone technology typically completes jobs 50-70% faster than traditional methods.

Do I need to be present during the cleaning?

For commercial buildings, we typically coordinate with facility management. We provide detailed documentation of the completed work, including before and after photos.

What happens if weather conditions are unsuitable on my scheduled date?

If weather conditions are unsuitable for safe and effective drone operation on your scheduled service date, we will contact you as soon as possible to reschedule. We monitor weather forecasts closely and will typically notify you 24-48 hours in advance if rescheduling appears necessary.
