When your balcony becomes a haven for pigeons instead of people, it’s time to take action. That’s exactly what one of our recent clients needed – a smart, discreet bird proofing solution that would stop unwanted feathered visitors from disturbing their peace.
We were called in to design and install a tailored system that combined balcony netting with strategically placed stainless steel spikes. Why both? Because birds are crafty – if they can’t land here, they’ll try there. Our job was to make sure there didn’t exist.
How We Carried It Out
- RAMS Completed & Followed – A full risk assessment and method statement was done before work began, ensuring every stage of the job was safe, compliant, and clearly planned.
- Correct PPE & RPE Worn – Our technicians don’t just look the part – they’re properly protected, especially when working at height.
- Tailored Installation – Every building, balcony, surface is different. Like for any other case, we carefully measured and fitted the netting and spike placements to match each structure’s layout and vulnerability.
- Minimal Disruption – Quiet tools, tidy working, and clear communication – we kept the client informed without disturbing their day.
- Responsible Waste Removal & Aftercare Advice – All waste was taken away and responsibly disposed of. We also provided recommendations for ongoing maintenance and future prevention.
One Less Worry for the Residents
The result? A clean, bird-free balcony that the resident can enjoy again – without any early morning pigeon parties.
