Why they keep coming back in Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid

Streets and every surface carry a constant fine film of building dust, and ongoing excavation raises particles that drift through open windows and doors with ease. The method is set out in full on how we approach Disinfection.

The first reason

Continuous building dust forms a barrier that blocks disinfectant reaching the surface

A newly built district surrounded by excavation and construction on all sides. Fine dust from the worksites deposits on every surface in a layer thick enough to form a barrier. This film prevents the disinfectant reaching the underlying surface. Deep mechanical cleaning before chemical application is essential and may take longer than the disinfection itself.

The second reason

Nearby Wadi Malakan raises humidity that traps dust and encourages mould

The wadi carries flood water after rain and raises air humidity. This moisture traps dust on surfaces and promotes mould growth. Disinfectant is less effective in highly damp conditions. Humidity control and ventilation before disinfection are necessary.

The third reason

Vacant land attracts germs from soil and animals surrounding the new homes

Empty plots around new houses provide breeding ground for insects, rodents and other parasites. Germs from these sources enter homes easily when windows are open during construction. External insect protection may be necessary alongside interior disinfection.

Before treatment

What we look at before the product is chosen

The scheme is crossed by the Fifth Ring Road and the southern extension of Ibrahim Al Khalil Road, surrounded by Kasab Hills and government land offered for medical complexes and a central market, with active construction continuing year-round.

The touch points

Touch points in the new district from door and window handles, railings and surfaces get dirty rapidly from dust. Mechanical cleaning before disinfection is foundational to the work.

Porous surfaces

Porous surfaces on new concrete and modern paint need deep disinfection. The product must stay wet long enough to penetrate the fine layer of new surfaces.

The finish itself

Modern paint on walls is safe with disinfectants, but dust that settles before drying may leave residue. Cleaning and ventilation after application are necessary.

The air conditioning unit

Air conditioning units in new homes need special attention to cleaning and disinfection, because dust from the site clogs filters rapidly.

Floor traps

Floor drains in the new district may be unblocked but need direct disinfection, and ensuring they have not clogged with dust from the site is necessary.

Shared entrances and stairs

Doors and stairs in new homes and apartments may be fouled by construction work. Pre-cleaning before disinfection ensures the product reaches the surface itself.

How we work

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
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
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
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 surface and touch point survey

What gets treated, and with what, settled before anything is opened.
Soil off first, then the disinfectant

The greasy film comes off first, then a product that stays wet for the contact time it needs.
Floor traps and the air conditioning drain

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

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

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

The character of Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid

New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes

A new development with ongoing building and vacant plots means external contamination sources are continuous and intense. Disinfection is not a permanent solution but part of sustained protection strategy. The need for deep pre-cleaning before every disinfection is higher than in settled districts, and shorter repeat intervals are essential.

Questions about this district

The district is brand new; is disinfection necessary at the same level as older quarters?

Yes, even new districts need regular disinfection. Ongoing building and high dust levels make the need urgent. The germs introduced by workers, machinery and dust may be highly diverse.

Vacant land and ongoing construction all around: does this mean separate pest control alongside disinfection?

Yes, empty plots and excavation sites attract large numbers of insects and rodents. Disinfection eliminates present insects but does not prevent new ones entering from outside. Separate pest control alongside disinfection may be necessary.

How often per year should we disinfect in a district with active construction and high dust?

In a district with ongoing building work, disinfection may need to be as frequent as every three weeks or one month, not the two months typical in quiet areas. Dust means surfaces get dirty faster and germs return more quickly.

Moisture entering from vacant plots and the wadi: does disinfection solve that problem?

Disinfection kills present germs but does not solve the underlying moisture problem. Good ventilation, drying surfaces before treatment, and repair of any leaks are necessary alongside the chemical application.

New buildings and modern surfaces: are all disinfectants safe on them?

Modern surfaces of new concrete, paint and marble are safe with most approved disinfectants. However, a test patch on an inconspicuous area first is necessary, especially on polished floors or special finishes.

Does the remote location and the Fifth Ring Road affect the disinfection work?

Location does not affect the chemical effectiveness itself, but may affect access convenience. Advance planning and coordination with residents ensures efficient work despite the relative distance.

How much does disinfection in Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid cost?

It is set after the inspection, because the price follows the type of infestation, the size of the space, how far it has spread and the number of visits it needs. Send a photo and a description on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Qashashiyah Al Jadid.
