How are Cleaning Companies Adjusting to COVID-19?
The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly impacted businesses and livelihoods around the world. The highly-infectious disease has brought about challenges never experienced before. Millions of people have been infected and hundreds of thousands killed across the globe.In order to minimize the spread of the disease, the federal and state governments have issued a raft of health measures that both individuals, institutions, and businesses should adhere to before commencing their operations.
Most of these guidelines have to do with cleanliness. It is believed that coronavirus spreads through the air and on surfaces.
As such, cleaning companies have had to adjust to the new COVID-19 cleaning requirements. As businesses and learning institutions start to reopen in Orlando and other parts of the country, one industry will be in the spotlight – cleaning.
Cleaning for COVID-19 is beyond basic janitorial work. It calls for a company that has adequate experience in biohazard cleaning to ensure that your office or workplace is free from any contaminants and ready to be used by workers and the general public.
For several years now, SERVPRO has specialized in biohazard cleaning in Orlando and other parts of the country. Our objective is to ensure that homes and commercial facilities are safe for use for those who live there.
Since the coronavirus pandemic broke out, we have stepped up our game to meet the demands of clients in various parts of Orlando.
We understand the seriousness of the virus and the threat that it poses to the public. That’s why we use high-quality and CDC-approved products such as Benefect Decon30 in our cleaning and disinfection operations.
Is COVID-19 cleaning necessary?
According to information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, coronavirus has the ability to survive on different surfaces, although this is not primarily how it spreads. It is still not clear for how long the virus can survive in the air and on surfaces.
A big percentage of people who get infected don’t show any signs or symptoms until after two weeks. That’s why taking early precautions is very important. You don’t know who is infected or which part of your commercial facility has been contaminated.
The only way to minimize the spread and allay fears from workers and the public is to hire an experienced company for your COVID-19 cleaning services.
It doesn’t matter whether you are operating a restaurant, a daycare, commercial office, retail store, or warehouse, it is your responsibility to ensure that anyone who works or visits these places is safe.
As mentioned earlier, basic cleaning is important but it won’t kill the germs and prevent the spread of the disease. It needs both cleaning and disinfecting all corners of your operation areas with a powerful disinfectant such as Benefect Decon30.
At SERVPRO, we have created cleaning and disinfecting protocols for COVID-19 aimed at helping companies and businesses that believe their workplaces or operational areas have been exposed to the dangerous virus. We have a high-trained team of experts who are actively involved in the daily operations across Orlando.
How we clean and disinfect surfaces for coronavirus
Cleaning surfaces for coronavirus requires a lot of attention and focus on details. First and foremost, we have specialized products and equipment dedicated to our work. Unlike regular cleaning operations, COVID-19 cleaning requires a lot of planning.
We basically focus on cleaning and disinfecting all surfaces in the building. The first step involves our team of experts visiting your commercial facility to carry out an assessment. If you suspect that your building or office has already been exposed, we will use our coronavirus cleaning protocol to ensure that the place is disinfected accordingly.
You don’t have to worry about occupying the place after the cleaning and disinfection exercise because all our products are purely organic and safe. We ensure that every product we use has been approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as well as the Centers for Diseases Prevention and Control (CDC).
Some of the areas of focus for our cleaning and disinfection exercise include desks, touch screens, door handles, seating areas, handrails, shopping carts, keyboards, hallways, and many more. The nature of cleaning will also depend on the type of your commercial facility.
For example, if you are operating a spacious warehouse, we can use aerosolized disinfectants to ensure that the whole place is decontaminated. Our biotech experts use personal protective equipment (PPE) like gloves, gowns, and face masks to protect themselves during the disinfection process.
By the time we are done, you can be assured that your office, restaurant, or warehouse is safe for use. We will also ensure that all the materials used are properly disposed of as biohazardous waste. Our company also has customized cleaning for clients who contact us in advance for such services.
What should you expect during cleaning and disinfecting of a facility that has been exposed to the virus?
• All the areas used by a person suspected to have the virus are closed off
• Leave outside windows and doors open and increase air circulation using fans
• Cleaning and disinfecting workspaces used by an infected person
• Vacuuming the space, if necessary
• The area can be opened for use after a thorough cleaning and disinfection exercise
Bottom line
The threat of COVID-19 is real. Over two million people have already died and others are still lying in hospitals. It is important to take the virus with the seriousness that it deserves.
As the owner of a business or commercial facility, you have a duty to protect your workers and the public by hiring an experienced COVID-19 cleaning company.
