Many commercial cleaning tasks are located at height, where incorrect access methods introduce unnecessary risk. Façades, cladding, rooflines and structural features often cannot be reached safely using ladders or basic equipment without compromising safety or efficiency.
MEWP access cleaning provides a controlled, stable working platform that allows operatives to carry out high-level cleaning tasks safely while maintaining precision and consistency. For facilities managers, this approach reduces risk exposure and ensures work is carried out in line with health and safety obligations.
Selecting the correct access method is critical on commercial sites. MEWP access is frequently chosen where:
Compared to improvised access or unsuitable methods, MEWPs allow cleaning to be completed efficiently while maintaining safe working distances and consistent results.
Where MEWP access is not suitable due to building geometry or restricted ground space, works may instead be delivered using rope access cleaning following assessment.
MEWP access cleaning supports a wide range of commercial exterior services, including:
By combining access capability with surface-specific expertise, MEWP cleaning delivers safer outcomes without compromising cleaning quality.
Every MEWP access project begins with a site assessment to evaluate building height, surface type, ground conditions and operational constraints. The appropriate MEWP type is selected to ensure reach, stability and safe positioning.
Works are planned to minimise disruption, with controlled working zones established where required. Cleaning methods are matched to the surface being treated, ensuring effective results without damage to coatings, materials or fixings.
This approach allows high-level cleaning to be carried out efficiently while maintaining compliance and site safety.
MEWP access cleaning is commonly used across:
It is particularly effective for large façades, extended rooflines and sites with predictable access routes.
MEWP access cleaning is delivered by trained operatives with experience working at height in live commercial environments. Risk assessments and method statements are provided where required, ensuring clarity for facilities managers and site stakeholders.
By using purpose-designed access equipment rather than improvised solutions, MEWP cleaning supports safer working practices and reduces liability across complex sites.
Cavalry Cleaning delivers MEWP access cleaning services across multiple UK regions, supporting both single-site buildings and multi-location property portfolios.
Choosing the correct access method is critical to safe, effective high-level cleaning. MEWP access provides a stable, compliant solution for commercial buildings where precision, planning and safety cannot be compromised.
If your site requires high-level exterior cleaning, Cavalry Cleaning can assess whether MEWP access is the most appropriate solution.
