Rope access in City of London
Glazing, cleaning and building maintenance at height, with no scaffold and no road closure.
Working in City of London
The Square Mile is all curtain walls, tight streets and buildings that never close. Getting a crane or a cherry picker onto Cheapside or Bishopsgate is slow and costly, which is exactly why rope access works so well here. We clean, repair and replace glass on City offices with a barrier zone at street level and no road closure.
Buildings we look after here
- Curtain-wall office towers
- Livery halls and listed stone facades
- Atria, lightwells and set-back terraces
- Retail frontages at street level

FAQs
Rope access in City of London: common questions
Do you need a road closure to work in the City?
Usually not. Rope access needs only a pavement barrier zone below the drop, which is far easier to licence than a crane or MEWP on the highway.
Can you work outside office hours?
Yes. Early starts, evenings and weekends are common on City jobs so tenants and pedestrians are not disturbed.
How much does rope access cost in City of London?
Every building is different, so we price after a free site survey or a drone survey. You get a fixed price and an access plan before any work starts.
