A technician wiping down a door handle during a disinfection visit

Disinfection for homes and businesses

We list the surfaces and the touch points first, take the film off whatever we are treating so the product reaches the surface itself, then apply it and leave it wet for as long as it needs. Floor traps and the air conditioning drain are part of the job, because that is where a returning smell comes from, not the worktop.

  • Targeted, not broadcast

    Product goes into cracks and runways, never sprayed across open surfaces.

  • Told before we start

    What we will use, where it goes, and what to cover or move before we arrive.

  • A follow-up visit

    We return after the first treatment, because what survives it does not show on the day.

  • Homes and businesses

    Apartments and villas, and kitchens and stores that need a record of each visit.

Why a pass with a disinfectant does not hold

Three reasons, and between them they explain what happened last time.

First

A disinfectant does not work through a film

Every surface in use carries a thin film of dust and grease, and that is normal. The active is spent on the film before it touches the surface, so what you get is a wet surface and nothing else.

Second

Drying it straight away cancels it

Every product has a contact time it needs to stay visibly wet for. Spray and wipe in one motion leaves a clean surface, not a disinfected one.

Third

It is a moment, not a barrier

A disinfectant leaves nothing behind it, and recontamination starts with the next hand on the handle. That is why the touch points and the frequency matter more than covering every square metre once.

Before treatment

What we look at before the product is chosen

Six things we go over on the first walkthrough, and each one changes either the product or the method.

A metal door handle in close up

The touch points

Handles, switches and taps are the real route between people, and they get hand work, because fogging does not reach them properly.

Woven sofa upholstery in close up

Porous surfaces

Fabric, mattresses and rugs pull the product in instead of holding it on top, so they need a textile safe material and drying time.

A pale marble worktop in a kitchen

The finish itself

Marble, natural stone and aluminium take badly to chlorine products, so we ask about the finish before anything is opened.

The filter and grille of an indoor air conditioning unit

The air conditioning unit

The filter and the drain tray stay damp right through the summer, and treating the room while leaving the unit brings the smell back within days.

A metal floor drain set into tiling

Floor traps

When the water in a trap dries out, drain air comes straight back up into the room, and that is a plumbing smell no amount of surface work will fix.

A metal handrail in an apartment stairwell

Shared entrances and stairs

Handrails, lift buttons and the entrance door are touched dozens of times a day, and they are the first route back into a flat.

How the visit runs

Four steps, and the order is what does the work.

  1. 1

    Walk the space and list the surfaces

    We go through the rooms and mark the touch points, the porous surfaces and the finishes, then ask what prompted the call: illness at home, moving into a new place, building work, or a smell that arrived out of nowhere.

  2. 2

    Clean what we are about to treat

    We take the film of dust and grease off the surfaces that are in scope, so the product reaches the surface itself. This is preparation for the treatment, not general house cleaning.

  3. 3

    Apply it, and hold the contact time

    Hand work on the touch points, a product matched to each surface, and the surface left visibly wet for as long as that material needs before it is dried off. Cold fogging comes last, for what a cloth cannot reach.

  4. 4

    Ventilate and hand back

    We open the place up, rinse food preparation surfaces with water, and tell you when each room goes back into use. We give you that timing on the call, because it changes with the product and the space.

What a disinfection visit includes

  • A technician inspecting with a flashlight

    A surface and touch point survey

    What gets treated, and with what, settled before anything is opened.

  • A spray nozzle in close detail

    Soil off first, then the disinfectant

    The greasy film comes off first, then a product that stays wet for the contact time it needs.

  • A metal floor drain

    Floor traps and the air conditioning drain

    Floor traps, sink outlets and the drain tray, which is where most smells actually begin.

  • A spray nozzle in close detail

    Cold fogging for the space

    For upward faces and corners a cloth never reaches, done as the last thing before we leave a room.

  • A clean kitchen counter after treatment

    Ventilation and use instructions

    What gets rinsed with water, what is left alone, and when each room goes back into use.

  • The visit report being written on a clipboard

    A scheduled repeat when it is needed

    For shared entrances and places people pass through every day, because a disinfectant leaves nothing behind to stop the next contact.

Exactly where the product goes

  • 1

    Inside joints, not on surfaces

    Bait goes into a cabinet joint or a gap behind an appliance, in dots the size of a match head, in places no hand reaches and nothing touches in ordinary use.

  • 2

    Away from where food is

    Nothing is sprayed on preparation surfaces, inside food cupboards, or across open floor in living rooms and bedrooms.

  • 3

    A little preparation first

    Cover dishes, move water bowls. We give you the ventilation time for your treatment on the call, rather than a general number printed on a page.

  • 4

    Tell us the exceptions

    Asthma, an allergy or a pregnancy in the home changes the product choice and the order of the visit. It is a change we make often and it does not delay the appointment.

Common questions

What is the difference between cleaning and disinfection?

Cleaning takes away soil and grease. Disinfection acts on the micro-organisms left once it is gone, and neither one replaces the other. The order is not optional either: a disinfectant laid over a film of dust is spent before it ever reaches the surface. We clean the surfaces that are in scope as preparation for the treatment, but we do not offer general house cleaning.

Is it safe around children, pets and food surfaces?

The product is chosen for the surface and for the room, and in spaces in daily use we work by targeted wiping rather than broadcast spraying. Toys and pet bowls are lifted before we start, and food preparation surfaces are rinsed with water once the contact time is finished.

When can the rooms be used again?

It depends on the material, and on whether we fogged the room or kept to targeted wiping. The size of the space and the ventilation come into it as well. We give you the timing on the phone before the visit and repeat it when we arrive, and we do not print a fixed number here because it genuinely differs case to case. What you can set up before we get there is in preparing your home before a visit.

Does disinfection stop it coming back, and why did the smell return?

Disinfection is a point in time and leaves no residual behind it, so a surface is back in service from the next touch. That is why we work the touch points and suggest a repeat rather than covering every square metre once. If the smell came back within days, the source is usually not a surface at all: a floor trap whose water seal has dried out, an air conditioning drain tray, or damp sitting behind a finish. Where a place takes people through it every day, a schedule beats a single visit, and that is what Annual contracts covers.

Does disinfection deal with insects or rodents?

No. Different product, different target: a disinfectant acts on micro-organisms sitting on a surface and does nothing to a cockroach harbourage or a rodent run. Where a place needs both, the control work goes first and the disinfection follows it. See Cockroach control or Rodents and mice. Rodent droppings in particular are never swept dry, they are wetted with disinfectant first and then lifted.

Does this cover the water tank?

No. A tank is a separate job with its own order: drain it, lift the sediment off the floor of it, wash it down under high pressure, and sterilise last. Treating the surfaces inside a flat does nothing to water standing in a tank, so if the smell or the taste is in the water itself, start at Water tank cleaning and then Water tank sterilization.

What does a disinfection visit cost?

It is set after the inspection, because the figure follows the number of rooms, how many surfaces are in scope, the finishes involved, whether the place needs fogging or targeted wiping alone, and whether it is one visit or a repeating schedule.
