FAQ
Common questions about cleanup
Is C. diff cleaning different from normal cleaning?
Yes. C. diff concerns require attention to spores, affected rooms, restrooms, high-touch surfaces, product label directions, and contact time. It should not be treated like routine janitorial cleaning.
What should be disinfected after a C. diff concern?
Common priority areas include restrooms, toilets, sinks, handles, counters, light switches, bed rails, shared equipment, patient-care areas, laundry touchpoints, and any room connected to the exposure concern.
What is EPA List K?
EPA List K is the EPA list of antimicrobial products registered with claims against C. diff spores. Product labels and contact times should be followed carefully.
What types of facilities need commercial disinfection?
Offices, gyms, schools, daycares, clinics, rental properties, and shared facilities may need disinfection after illness or contamination concerns.
How is commercial disinfection different from regular janitorial cleaning?
Janitorial cleaning focuses on visible dirt, trash, routine surfaces, and presentation. Commercial disinfection focuses on high-touch surfaces, shared areas, and facility-specific contamination concerns using a defined disinfection scope.
Can disinfection happen after business hours?
Often, yes. Many offices, gyms, schools, restaurants, and medical-adjacent spaces prefer after-hours scheduling so the work can happen with less disruption.
Do you handle one-time and recurring disinfection?
Yes. Commercial disinfection can be scheduled as a one-time response after an illness concern or as recurring support for higher-traffic facilities.
How much does commercial disinfection cost?
Cost depends on square footage, facility type, access, high-touch areas, urgency, and whether the service is one-time or recurring. A first call should clarify those details before a scope is recommended.
Can disinfection be scheduled discreetly?
Yes. Commercial disinfection can often be scheduled around business hours or handled in a way that limits disruption.
Can anyone guarantee no one will get sick after disinfection?
No. A responsible disinfection service can address defined areas and reduce risk, but no provider should guarantee that employees, tenants, students, customers, or visitors cannot become ill.
