Question 2

What is the difference between general cleaning and deep cleaning?

Accepted Answer

General cleaning consists of items such as emptying trash, vacuuming, mopping, and cleaning mirrors, sinks, and toilets in restrooms. Deep cleaning involves meticulously cleaning areas that normally aren’t covered in general cleaning, such as dusting all horizontal and vertical surfaces, floor maintenance such as stripping and waxing floors or hot water extraction of carpets. Cleaning appliances or windows are also considered deep cleaning services.

Question 3

What is the difference between cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting surfaces?"

Accepted Answer

The CDC states:
Cleaning is the necessary first step of any disinfection process. It removes germs, dirt, and impurities from surfaces or objects. Cleaning works by scrubbing with soap (or detergent) and water to physically remove germs from surfaces. It does not necessarily kill germs, but it does reduce the risk of spreading infection.
Sanitizing reduces the number of germs on surfaces or objects to a safe level.  This process lowers the risk of spreading infection.
Disinfecting uses chemicals to kill germs on surfaces or objects. After cleaning, disinfecting can further lower the risk of spreading infection. If a surface is not cleaned first, the success of the disinfection process can be compromised.

Question 4

What does contact or dwell time mean and why is it important?

Accepted Answer

When cleaning with a disinfectant, contact or dwell time is the length of time needed to allow the surface to remain wet. It is imperative to read the label prior to using a disinfectant. This will ensure the surface remains wet for the correct length of time. Spraying disinfectant and immediately wiping it off the surface is not effective and viruses may continue to contaminate the area.

Question 5

How long will it take to clean my facility?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the size of your space and the type of services you need. The location and number of tile floors, high traffic areas, restrooms, and individual offices are taken into consideration. The frequency of cleaning– daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly are additional factors. A facility of primarily open space may take one cleaner on average one hour to clean 2.500 square feet. However, the same cleaner may only be able to effectively clean on average 1,700 square feet in a medical facility.
