Light well with anti-pigeon spikes on window sills and ledges

Pigeon deterrent installation in the Eixample.

In the Eixample we free cornices, balconies and light wells from pigeons: we clean, disinfect and fit whichever deterrent suits each spot.

When is it time to fit pigeon deterrents?

  • Droppings on balconies and pavements
  • Nests on cornices or air-con units
  • Pigeons perching on signs and ledges
  • Blocked downpipes and gutters

What pigeon proofing includes

  • Façade survey

    We find where birds perch and nest so we only protect what is needed.

  • Cleaning and disinfection

    We remove nests and droppings and disinfect before fitting anything.

  • Spikes

    Stainless steel spikes on cornices, ledges, signs and windowsills.

  • Netting

    Tensioned netting to close off light wells, gaps and unused balconies.

  • Tensioned wires

    Almost invisible steel wires on railings and long edges.

  • No harm to the façade

    Discreet fixings, with every hole sealed to avoid leaks.

Pigeons on the façade in the Eixample: where they settle and how we stop them

In older buildings, façades have cornices, corbels, mouldings and enclosed balconies where pigeons perch under cover. We fit spikes along the lines of the stone or render, with discreet fixings that leave the building's look unchanged (common in La Dreta de l'Eixample and L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample).

For spikes, we measure the width of each cornice or ledge and choose strips with one, two or three rows. We bond or screw them according to the material, so there is no gap left where a pigeon could land again.

Over 20 years working on façades and renovation: a site manager coordinates the rope access team and we leave the treated areas clean. We also cover the surrounding areas: Gràcia, Sant Martí and Ciutat Vella.

Frequently asked questions

01

Pigeon deterrent installation in the Eixample: which areas do you cover?

We work in the Eixample in areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample, L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample, Sant Antoni, La Sagrada Família and El Fort Pienc, and also nearby: Gràcia, Sant Martí and Ciutat Vella.

02

Do these systems hurt the pigeons?

No. Spikes, netting and wires are deterrents: they stop birds landing or nesting but do not injure them. The pigeons simply move elsewhere.

03

What happens to existing nests?

We remove them before fitting, along with the droppings, and disinfect the area. If there are chicks, we assess it during the visit to choose the right moment.

04

Can they be seen from the street?

Barely. We use steel spikes, neutral-coloured netting and fine wires, placed along the lines of the façade so they go unnoticed.
