Bio-Shield provides professional pigeon guano removal and decontamination services across Manchester and the wider Greater Manchester area. This service is designed for properties affected by bird fouling where droppings and contaminated debris present a risk to health, safety, and the condition of the building.
We work with landlords, managing agents, local authorities, housing providers, and commercial clients to safely remove contamination and restore affected areas to a hygienic and compliant standard.
Pigeon droppings can accumulate over time and may contain harmful bacteria, fungal spores, and parasites. When dried guano is disturbed, contaminated dust can become airborne, increasing the risk of inhalation and cross-contamination within a property.
Commonly affected areas include lofts, roof voids, balconies, plant rooms, warehouses, loading bays, and sheltered external spaces. Due to the health risks involved, standard cleaning methods are not suitable and specialist handling is required.
Professional pigeon guano removal and decontamination may be required where:
Significant build-ups of droppings are present
Long-term roosting or nesting has occurred
Contamination is affecting lofts or enclosed spaces
Commercial or residential buildings require safe remediation
Each site is assessed individually to determine contamination levels, access requirements, and the most appropriate cleaning approach.
Manchester includes a wide range of commercial buildings, residential blocks, warehouses, and mixed-use properties where pigeon activity can become established over time.
Our technicians are experienced in working within busy urban environments and plan works carefully to manage access, safety, and disruption while ensuring contamination is removed effectively.
Customers contact us with details of the issue. Where possible, we request images or videos of the affected areas to allow an initial assessment.
Based on the information provided, we issue a clear written quotation outlining the scope of works, expected timescales, and any access or waste disposal requirements. For extensive contamination or difficult access, an on-site survey may be required before works commence.
Works typically include the controlled removal of guano and contaminated debris, followed by professional cleaning and decontamination using approved disinfectants.
All pigeon guano removal and decontamination work is carried out by trained technicians using appropriate PPE and specialist equipment.
Contaminated waste is removed, transported, and disposed of responsibly using licensed waste carriers and approved disposal routes, in accordance with environmental and health regulations.
Pricing varies depending on the extent of contamination, access requirements, and the volume of waste involved.
Guide prices for pigeon guano removal and decontamination typically start from £500 (plus VAT). Where contamination is extensive or access is complex, pricing typically starts from £1,200 (plus VAT). Final costs are confirmed following assessment. Full details of how our pricing works can be found on our pricing page.
Following guano removal, preventative measures may be recommended to reduce the risk of reoccurrence. This can include bird deterrents, proofing, or exclusion systems.
Where required, follow-on services can be arranged through our Shield Group partners to help protect the property long-term.
