Thorough Cleaning Procedures During COVID 19

This is to inform our clients that it is Classic Building Cleaners top priority to do a thorough clean of all touch point areas in each facility that people may come in direct contact with. This means we are to clean off any dirt residue from all touch points (i.e. door frames, door handles, keypads, elevator keys, push bars handrails, desktops, counter tops etc.). After the surface is clean we go back over to each area in order to sanitize or disinfect depending on dwell time. You may see streaking on items that are sanitized or disinfected because, in order to sanitize or disinfect, the solution must be laid down wet and left to dry, thus killing any germs. These guidelines are laid out by the CDC under cleaning and disinfecting/sanitizing.

During these procedures, our staff are to wear gloves and approapite PPE and use a separate micro rag to clean and then to sanitize or disinfect depending on dwell time. This stops cross contamination from occurring. The disinfectng micro rag is always to be wet with disinfectng solution for the micro rag to be a disinfectng point of contact to the surface. If micro rags start to dry or become soiled, they are replaced with new disinfectng micro rags. It is our job to keep each facility clean and safe.

CleaningDue to the existing environment we are now living in with the COVID 19 pandemic, Classic Building Cleaners wants to stress more then ever our existing policy to always have staff working in a safe environment.

Currently, we wish our staff to step up, not back. To work as a team to get the job done. But not to close “Social Distancing Please”

Cleaning and Disinfecting Environmental Surfaces in Facilities as Recommended by the CDC for Proper Cleaning and Disinfecting
1.    Clean housekeeping surfaces (e.g., floors, tabletops) on a regular basis, when spills occur, and when these surfaces are visibly soiled.

This means that before any surface can be disinfected you must first clean it. Which means wearing proper gloves you would go around the facility, with a micro rag spray down all touch points ( meaning any point that people in the facility may touch i.e. door frames, counter tops, stair rails, touch pads, elevator buttons, counter tops, door handles, fridge handles etc.…). As the micro rag becomes dirty change it out with a clean one. Once the soil is cleaned from the touch point surfaces this does not mean it is disinfected.

2.    Disinfect (or clean) environmental surfaces on a regular basis and when surfaces are visibly soiled. Once the touch points have been thoroughly cleaned disinfecting starts.

Before starting the disinfection procedure, you must replace gloves with new clean ones to prevent cross contamination. If using a micro rag start off with a new clean one, then spray or soak it down with the disinfecting agent so the micro rag is totally wet (this stop any possible cross contamination because the rag is now a sanitized surface). Now use the rag to wet down the touch points and walk away to let dry, this will sanitize the surface. Repeat this on all touch points, if the micro rag starts to get dry, re-apply more disinfecting solution. If micro rag shows some soiling, replace with new one and soak with disinfectant solution (soiled rags weaken the disinfecting solution).
