In October 2026 Drone Washing Solutions made history again as the first ever drone cleaner on North Padre Island! We may even be the first drone building wash in Corpus Christi’s history! We completed a full building wash, TPO canopy roof wash and cleaned all 54 balconies on the Portofino Condominiums. Portofino was built in 1974 and is still the tallest building on the island, people familiar with the area know it well.
The building had 10 years of coastal build up and the TPO roof even longer! Wait till you see the condition of the vacant unit balconies, so much bird p**p! Most locals were not capable of cleaning this building properly. Some gave quotes then showed up and said “sorry but we can’t” so the HOA board went online and found us. Pro tip; they found us through our SEO as apparently we are the only reputable drone cleaner that has Corpus Christi in our service area.
It came down to us and another drone company from Austin. Why did the board go with us? Easy, we give straight, no BS answers and we understand first and foremost a drone is a tool and not the best tool for every aspect of the job. We gave a detailed plan of attack using the drone where we could safely operate, guns where we needed them, traditional for the TPO roof and the balconies were old fashioned hard work with pump sprayers and hard water rinsing. We had planned 6 days spread over 2 weeks and we got it done in 4.5 days! The winds are absolutely brutal at the coast so we only had a 2-3 hour drone cleaning window in the early morning before solar heating really cranks the wind speeds up. Drone work took 4.5 hours, gun work 1 day, balconies 2.5 days and TPO roof half a day = 4.5 working days.
We couldn’t have done this alone so a big thanks to Flying Otter Aviation helping with drone work, communicting with the near by Naval base and rigging ropes for OSHA safe balcony work. Also big thanks to FAZ Power Washing, who knocked out the TPO roof for us, if you need professional pressure washing in Corpus Christi please contact FAZ.
