At Phoenix Drone Pros, we’re leading the charge with a powerful new solution: drone power washing.

Why Drone Power Washing Is the Future of Exterior Cleaning in Phoenix

When it comes to keeping buildings clean in the harsh Arizona climate, property managers and business owners are always looking for safer, faster, and more cost-effective ways to maintain their exteriors. At Phoenix Drone Pros, we’re leading the charge with a powerful new solution: drone power washing.

This innovative approach is transforming the way commercial and residential buildings are cleaned in Phoenix—and for good reason. Here's why more property owners are choosing drone-based cleaning over traditional methods.


1. Safer for Workers, Tenants, and Pedestrians

Traditional power washing often requires ladders, scaffolding, or even rope access to reach tall buildings. These setups put workers at significant risk, especially when dealing with multi-story structures or uneven ground.

Drone power washing eliminates the need for dangerous heights. Our drones stay airborne while operators remain safely on the ground, reducing liability and keeping everyone safer—from crew members to tenants and bystanders.


2. Faster Turnaround Times

Setting up ladders, lifts, or scaffolding can take hours. Add in the actual cleaning time, and traditional methods can stretch into multiple days—causing disruptions to business operations or tenant comfort.

With a drone, we can be up and cleaning in minutes. The drone covers large surface areas quickly and efficiently, allowing us to clean an entire building in a fraction of the time.


3. Cost-Effective Cleaning

Time is money—and so is equipment, labor, and insurance. Traditional exterior cleaning often involves multiple workers, specialized gear, and high insurance premiums due to the risk involved.

Drone power washing reduces labor costs and overhead. With fewer personnel and faster job times, we pass those savings directly to our clients.


4. Eco-Friendly & Precise

Our drones use targeted spray systems that minimize water waste and avoid overspray. This is especially important in Phoenix, where water conservation matters.

Plus, drones can get precisely where they’re needed—reaching awkward angles and tight corners that human crews often miss or can’t safely access.


5. Ideal for High-Rise & Hard-to-Reach Areas

Whether it’s a tall office building, a hotel facade, or a solar panel array, some areas are just plain hard to reach with traditional methods.

Our drones are built for these challenges. With high-lift capacity, stable flight, and precision spraying, they can tackle jobs that are impractical—or even impossible—for manual crews.


6. Minimal Disruption to Daily Operations

No noisy lifts, no blocked entrances, no long setup times. Drone cleaning is quiet, quick, and doesn’t interfere with tenants, employees, or visitors.

This makes drone power washing ideal for:

  • Office parks
  • Apartment complexes
  • Shopping centers
  • Schools and universities

7. The Smart Choice for Phoenix Weather

Phoenix’s intense sun, dust, and monsoon rains can do a number on your property’s exterior. Regular cleaning helps maintain your building’s appearance and longevity.

Drone power washing is the perfect solution for Arizona's climate. We can schedule routine cleanings that keep your building looking fresh—without costly equipment rentals or ongoing hazards.

Colleen, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin? The journey of Phoenix Drone Pros began when Robert Biggs, a tech enthusiast and avid photographer, first laid eyes on drone technology. Fascinated by the potential of capturing breathtaking imagery from the skies, Robert delved deep into the world of drones, honing his skills and mastering the art of aerial photography and videography. In 2015, with a keen eye for innovation and a drive to share his passion with the world, Robert officially established Phoenix Drone Pros. The name “Phoenix” symbolizes rebirth and renewal and reflects the soaring capabilities of the drones that would soon take flight under his expert guidance. From the outset, Robert set out to create a company that would stand apart from the competition by offering unmatched expertise, state-of-the-art technology, and personalized service. He envisioned Phoenix Drone Pros as a one-stop solution for businesses seeking exceptional aerial imagery, whether for real estate, construction, search and rescue, cinematography, or any other industry that could benefit from a new perspective. Fast-forward to today, Phoenix Drone Pros is expanding in its 10th year of business in Franchising. Colleen Biggs, Robert’s devoted wife, brings her heart and expertise to this journey. With over 18 years in the Franchise Industry, she has been a steadfast advocate for franchisees, guiding them through every step of launching their businesses. From territory analysis and staffing to marketing, lease negotiations, training, and leadership development, Colleen has been there, helping others realize their dreams. Her experiences during challenging times in 2001 and 2008 have equipped her with the skills to build resilient, recession-proof businesses. Colleen’s passion has always been rooted in supporting franchisees and ensuring their success. Through her journey, she learned valuable lessons about what works and what doesn’t, always prioritizing transparency and honesty. At Phoenix Drone Pros, we embody these values, nurturing a community where our franchisees feel supported, valued, and empowered to thrive. Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way? Like any business, our journey has been shaped by both successes and setbacks—each one a valuable learning experience. When we first started, drones were a relatively new and misunderstood technology. Back then, it wasn’t uncommon to face unexpected challenges, like having a drone shot out of the sky while filming a property or dealing with upset neighbors convinced we were invading their privacy. Those early days taught us the importance of educating our clients and the public about how drones are used and the value they bring. Over time, as awareness and acceptance of drone technology grew, so did our business. We started by working with residential real estate agents, capturing stunning aerial views that helped homes sell faster. But as we refined our skills and invested in cutting-edge equipment, new opportunities emerged. Today, we’re proud to work on much larger-scale projects, partnering with solar farms, construction companies, and commercial real estate firms to deliver professional-grade aerial data and visuals. Each of these “bumps in the road” taught us resilience, adaptability, and the importance of clear communication. By overcoming early misconceptions, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, professionalism, and delivering exceptional results. These challenges didn’t just shape our business—they strengthened it, allowing us to soar to new heights. Great, so let’s talk business.
