Our Cleaning Process
Assessment and Free Quote
We assess the extent of the contamination, identify health risks, and provide a written quote within 2 hours. On-site or video assessment available.
Area Securing and PPE Setup
Safety barriers are erected, adjacent surfaces are protected, and our team dons full PPE: FFP3 masks, sealed suits, and chemical-resistant gloves.
Dry Removal and Scraping
Dried droppings are vacuumed using HEPA-filtered industrial vacuums and mechanically scraped after light dampening to prevent hazardous aerosol formation.
High-Pressure Wash and Disinfection
All surfaces are washed at 100–150 bar pressure, treated with a professional biocide disinfectant, contact time observed, and thoroughly rinsed. Full pathogen neutralisation is guaranteed.
Deterrent Installation and Intervention Report
We can install stainless steel spikes, nets, or repellent gel to prevent pigeons from returning. A signed decontamination certificate is provided on completion.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are pigeon droppings genuinely dangerous?
Yes. Dry droppings can harbour Cryptococcus neoformans, Chlamydia psittaci, and Salmonella. When disturbed, they release airborne particles that can be inhaled, causing serious respiratory and systemic illness. Professional cleaning with proper PPE is essential.
How much does pigeon dropping cleaning cost in Paris?
Prices range from around €200–€600 for a balcony or terrace to €800–€3,000 for a rooftop or shared building areas. We provide a free quote based on the specific surface and contamination level.
Can I clean pigeon droppings myself?
It is strongly discouraged without appropriate PPE. The risk of inhaling pathogens from dry droppings is real. Additionally, incomplete cleaning leaves residues that attract pigeons back. Professional intervention ensures full decontamination.
Do you install anti-pigeon deterrents?
Yes, as an optional add-on. We can fit stainless steel spikes, netting, or apply bird-repellent gel. These preventive solutions are recommended for areas with persistent pigeon activity.
Can building managers or syndicates contract you directly?
Absolutely. We work regularly with building managers, property syndicates, and commercial landlords. We can schedule recurring maintenance contracts and provide intervention reports for each visit.
