How do I disinfect surfaces during the coronavirus disease pandemic?
Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces throughout your NYC home or office on a regular basis while focusing on high-touch points is a critical step in preventing the spread of germs. Another important step is to avoid cross-contamination. Here at Checklist Maids, we have both of these steps covered.
As per our cross-contamination prevention efforts:
- All microfiber rags and mop pads are sanitized when washed.Â
- We bring fresh microfiber cloths to each home.Â
- We use disposable disinfecting wipes labeled to destroy viruses.
- Our regular protocol is designed to expose you to fewer people; they do not service more than 1 or 2 homes per day.Â
- All cleaners are repeatedly briefed on staying at home if displaying any symptoms or simply not feeling well.Â

What is the best household disinfectant for surfaces during COVID-19?

What places are important for disinfection during the COVID-19 pandemic?
When it comes to biohazard remediation, the primary focus of professional cleaning and disinfecting services is addressing the key touch points throughout your home or office. We will sanitize and disinfect all high-touch points using special sanitizing cleaning solutions.
Examples of high-touch surfaces are hard, non-porous surfaces such as:
- Tables

- Doorknobs
- Handles
- Push plates
- Light switches
- Toilets and toilet flushes
- Faucets and sinks
- Phones

Can I contract COVID-19 by touching a surface or object?
Coronavirus mainly spreads from person to person, but it can also spread from contact with infected surfaces or objects, such as if a person touches a contaminated surface or object and then touches their mouth, nose, or eyes.
In addition to our regular protocols including sanitizing cleaning solutions, wearing masks, shoe covers or removing our shoes, and disposable gloves, professional microfiber cloths, we are now using disposable disinfecting wipes which are labeled to destroy viruses, including human coronavirus.
How long does the virus that causes COVID-19 last on surfaces?
The latest research shows that the novel coronavirus which causes COVID-19 remains stable on surfaces for several hours to several days. In light of this, it is essential that you maintain a high standard of cleanliness at all times, whether by cleaning and disinfecting the key touchpoints in your home or office yourself or by hiring our professional services, especially in case of suspected exposure to germs.
How long will my cleaning and disinfection service in NYC take?
The duration of your professional cleaning and disinfection service depends mainly on the size of your home or office. If you have a 2-bedroom home, it will roughly take us 2-3 hours to clean it thoroughly. Our recurring disinfecting and cleaning services is a follow-up of the initial deep cleaning service which addresses build-up and the frequently overlooked or less frequently cleaned areas.
However, the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has made us even more aware of the potential health and safety risks all around us and the risks of cross-contamination, which is why we are especially diligent about keeping track of the latest guidelines on COVID-19 infection prevention and control and following the recommended preventive measures.
