SERVPRO of Milford-Orange-Stratford is here to help Woodbridge area businesses open their doors!
Connecticut business owners are relieved to hear that they will be able to start opening in a few weeks. And customers are sure to flock to the hair salons, restaurants with outdoor seating and shops after months of being shut-in. Business owners do have concerns about keeping their places of business clean and sanitary and their employees safe during this transition.
SERVPRO of Milford-Orange-Stratford offers cleaning services to help business owners keep their structures sanitary. We first clean, then disinfect (with a hospital grade disinfectant) when cleaning a commercial space. Cleaning removes the soil and dirt that harbors the infectious agents, while disinfecting kills the remaining environmental pathogens.
Cleanup procedures generally include cleaning of porous and non-porous surfaces, disinfecting of non-porous surfaces, cleaning and disinfecting of equipment, tools, and/or supplies used for cleanup process, and disposal of waste.
The CDC recommends usage of a labeled hospital-grade disinfectant with claims against similar type organisms to COVID-19. We use fogging machines to disperse SERVPROXIDE tthroughout a structure, providing an affordable way for businesses to be sanitized.
SERVPROXIDE™, SERVPRO’s proprietary disinfectant, is a hospital-grade disinfectant that has demonstrated effectiveness against viruses similar to SARS-CoV-2 on hard, non-porous surfaces. In addition, SERVPROXIDE™ currently has dozens of EPA-approved claims including Feline coronavirus, Canine coronavirus, Staphylococcus (MRSA), E. coli, Salmonella, Rotavirus, Swine flu (H1N1) and more.
The CDC encourages the cleaning of high touch surfaces. In a commercial setting, this list includes:
- Shelves and Racks
- Displays and Mannequins
- Packaged Inventory
- Fitting Room Stalls, Chairs and Walls
- Doorknobs, Light Switches and Lamps
- Carpets and Hard Flooring
- Computers, Telephones and Registers
- Bathrooms, Toilets and Changing Tables
- Sales Counters
- Elevator Cars. Handrails and Escalators
- Playground and Fitness Equipment
- Lockers and Water Fountains
It is important to note that while proactive cleaning can help remove existing contamination, it will not prevent or protect the building from future contamination if an infected person was to enter and occupy the building.
