Three apartment blocks.
Two days.
Two Aspira wash drones operating at the same time.

For the first time, we deployed two Drones and two pump systems simultaneously, cleaning separate apartment buildings side by side.

With more than 20 years of mould build-up across parts of the complex, there was plenty of work to get through.

But the bigger story is what this represents. As more Wash Drones enter operation, contractors can start thinking beyond replacing traditional access methods on a single building.

Multiple drones. Multiple operators. Multiple buildings. All working simultaneously.

It means getting significantly more work done in a day, without needing to scale people working at height in the same way.

A pretty exciting glimpse at where exterior building cleaning is heading.

When floodwaters recede, the visible damage is often only the beginning.

Flooding is not unfamiliar to the city of Lismore. In 2022, water levels exceeded 14 metres. Then again in 2025, floodwaters rose above 9.3 metres, impacting the C*D and surrounding residential areas.

However, once the water retreats, the aftermath continues. Flood events frequently leave behind contamination and rapid mould growth across buildings and community infrastructure.

Wash Drones was engaged to assist in restoring the exterior of Lismore Cinema, where significant mould had formed more than nine metres up the facade.

Multiple controlled treatment passes were required to progressively break down the contamination.

After several hours of aerial cleaning and sustained treatment, the building was restored as close to its original condition as possible and, most importantly, returned to a safe and hygienic state.

We are proud to have had the opportunity to support this remarkable city.

As WashDrones gains wider attention, we continue to set benchmarks in safety, efficiency and ex*****on.

Drone Flyer Spotlight: Geraldo Sansone

Drones aren’t just for filming anymore – they’re redefining how we protect and maintain our world.

Meet Geraldo Sansone, Chief Remote Pilot at WashDrones®, with over 3,000 hours of commercial flying experience. His team harnesses drone and soft-wash technology to clean buildings and landmarks that are difficult or unsafe to reach – from towering glass facades to Goulburn’s iconic Big Merino.

For Geraldo, the secret is preparation. Every project is backed by detailed planning, risk assessments, safe work zones, and weather monitoring. “The drone is just the tool – preparation is the craft,” he explains.

WashDrones® was created to replace dangerous, outdated methods like scaffolding, lifts and rope access with a safer, smarter alternative. Operators remain on the ground while drones deliver consistent results without disruption.

From historic sandstone cathedrals to large-scale infrastructure, the WashDrones® team applies precision flight control and conservation-grade care. Every pilot undergoes 250+ hours of training and rigorous testing to ensure safe operations in complex environments.

Geraldo’s advice to fellow operators? Double your checks, respect the rules, and prioritise safety above all else.

Discover how WashDrones® can make your property safer, cleaner and more cost-efficient.

✔️ Minimal guest disruption
✔️ Lower costs
✔️ Visible results in days

Golden Whitehead, General Manager, says:
