Bird proofing that works with your building and your programme.
Planning a construction project or looking after an occupied building? Send us the drawings, bill of quantities or site details. We can review the options, price the work and coordinate the right installation team.
Read the building before selecting the system.
Every building presents different bird pressure and construction details. UKBC reviews drawings, photographs, scope and site constraints before recommending a bird exclusion or perch deterrent system. A site survey follows where information is insufficient.
That means looking at nesting, roosting and loafing areas, neighbouring ledges, sheltered voids, food sources, access, substrate, interfaces and what happens when the building needs maintenance.

Bird deterrent systems for real buildings
Bird Netting
Physical exclusion for high pressure areas and enclosed architectural spaces.
View system →Bird Spikes
Robust perch deterrent protection for ledges, parapets, signs and linear surfaces.
View system →Post & Wire / Sprung Wire
Low-visibility tensioned wire systems for sensitive ledges and façades.
View system →Stainless Exclusion Mesh
Durable physical closure of openings, voids and access points.
View system →Solar Panel Bird Proofing
Perimeter exclusion designed around PV arrays without treating the panels as the fixing substrate.
View system →Low-profile Electric Track
Discreet behavioural deterrence for selected high-value architectural surfaces.
View system →316 marine-grade stainless steel by default.
UKBC specifies stainless-steel proofing systems as the default for long-term external installations. Galvanised alternatives can be considered where a client specification or budget requires them, but lifecycle, corrosion exposure and maintenance expectations should be assessed at survey stage.
Bird problems do not wait for a construction project.
From operating warehouses and hospital estates to commercial roofs, service yards and station canopies, UKBC reviews existing bird problems, maintenance access and operational constraints. Work can be phased around shifts, tenants and public access.

View sector →Bird control design review, measured quantities and specifications.
Technical support can begin with the tender pack: bird control bill of quantities review, drawing mark-ups, system selection, proposed fixing details, measured scope and specialist installation access planning. Proposed fixings and any building alterations remain subject to the relevant project approvals. UKBC coordinates suitable specialist installers and prepares the documented handover.
QS & estimating support →More than an email. A documented bird control tender process.
Tender packs are received securely, registered against an enquiry and reviewed by our specialist team. Quotations, clarifications and supporting documents stay connected to the project, giving contractors a clear point of contact and a traceable response.
How our tender process works →From drawings and quantities to an auditable handover.
Our approach combines practical bird proofing experience, technical drawing reviews and clear specifications for commercial properties and construction projects.
- Review of project drawings, existing system designs and bills of quantities.
- Bird control quantity take-offs and material breakdowns, system recommendations and documented scope assumptions.
- Coordination of relevant specialist subcontractors, including high level access.
- Quotation detail, installation records, as-built information and O&M manuals.
- Clear inspection, maintenance and system guarantee information where agreed in the contract.
Guarantee terms, maintenance requirements and inspection arrangements are set out clearly in the relevant quotation and handover documents.
Complex buildings call for practical decisions, not a standard product list.
The experience behind UKBC includes specialist work in distribution environments, occupied high-rise buildings, social housing and complex commercial premises, alongside projects in other controlled-access settings.
That experience was developed through earlier project roles and specialist contracting work. It informs our approach to drawing reviews, measured quantities, installation interfaces, access constraints, programme planning, technical specifications and O&M handover.
Every UKBC tender is reviewed against the project requirements, with relevant supporting experience and credentials provided where applicable.
A specialist package your project team can measure and procure.
Submit drawings, a bill of quantities, specification details or a ZIP pack for UKBC to review and price. Supplier registration details are available for prequalification and tender portals.
