What we do
Exterior upkeep is usually four vendors and a full inbox. It should be one partner and one screen.
Most property teams run glass, roof, solar, and hardscape as separate relationships, each with its own quote, schedule, and paperwork. We take the whole exterior, put it on a plan, and give you a portal where the plan actually lives.
How it usually goes
- A different vendor for glass, roof, solar, and hardscape
- Chasing quotes, scheduling, and certificates by email
- No record of what was cleaned, or when it was last done
- Crews on lifts and ropes, and the liability that comes with them
With Humming
- One partner across every exterior surface
- A standing schedule with access confirmed before each visit
- Photo-documented reports and live compliance docs in the portal
- Modern equipment, including drones, so fewer people work at height
One partner for the whole exterior
Glass, facade, roof, solar, and hardscape under a single scope and a single invoice, instead of four vendors you have to chase and coordinate.
A schedule you never have to manage
We set the cadence, confirm access ahead of every visit, and show up. You approve the plan once and the year runs itself.
Everything in one portal
Properties, upcoming visits, photo-documented reports, insurance certificates, and recommendations, all in one place your whole team can open.
Property manager portal
The part your team lives in, not just the part on the building.
Every Humming client gets a portal login. Your properties, your schedule, your reports, and your compliance documents in one place, on any device, with nothing to install.

Our clean guarantee
Every visit is documented with before and after photos, and if a pane or panel is not right, we come back and re-clean it at no charge.
- Photo documentation on every job
- Fixed scope and rate, agreed before we fly
- Re-clean promise on any missed spot
Compliance and safety
The part most competitors skip is the part that protects you.
Property managers carry the risk when a vendor cuts corners. We do not. Every job is fully insured, kept within wash-water and stormwater rules, and every certificate you need sits in your portal before the crew arrives.
FAA Part 107
Certified commercial drone pilots on every job.

Recurring plans

What buyers ask first.
It is the safer option. The dangerous part of exterior cleaning has always been putting people on the side of a building. Our drone does the cleaning from the air while the pilot and ground tech stay safely on the ground. No swing stages, no boom lifts, no rope access.
