Maintaining historic, architecturally distinct buildings in London demands more than just standard cleaning equipment. It takes smart planning, adaptable access techniques, and an experienced team.
At Kingsway Square in Battersea, a striking Victorian school complex converted into luxury residential apartments, our team carries out regular quarterly maintenance to keep the entire development looking pristine. Set around multiple internal courtyards and just moments from the iconic Battersea Power Station, the site presents a unique blend of architectural charm and modern access challenges.
A Tailored, Multi-Method Approach
Because no single method can service every elevation of this extensive development, our five-day programme deploys four specialist solutions simultaneously:
Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs): Working alongside our ultra-lightweight carbon-fibre pole systems, our truck-mounted cherry picker safely accesses awkward front elevations and tricky angles without disruption.
Pure Water Reach & Wash: Ground teams utilise reach-and-wash systems to clean high-level glazing efficiently across private courtyards, leaving a streak-free, spot-free finish.
High-Level Gutter Clearance: Surrounded by mature trees, clearing seasonal leaf-fall and debris from box gutters and downpipes is vital to prevent costly leaks and structural water ingress.
Specialist Abseiling & Portable A-Frames: Recent safety updates around modern glass balustrades restrict the use of certain traditional parapet eyebolts. To overcome this, our IRATA-trained rope technicians rig portable, counterweighted A-frame rigs on the rooftop terraces, enabling secure descent down complex facades.
Dependable London Building Maintenance
Every commercial property has its own structural quirks, and Kingsway Square is a prime example of how Clearview engineers safe, efficient access strategies tailored to complex architectural requirements.
Whether your building features delicate period brickwork, high-level glass balustrades, or restricted courtyards, our certified technicians ensure every pane is spotless while prioritising on-site safety.
