The Era of COVID-19 Viral Decontamination
When a home, business, commercial or industrial space has been contaminated with a virus such as COVID-19 (or other highly infectious and contagious viruses & bacteria), it is effectively rendered uninhabitable or not available for use. The presence of coronavirus – a harmful and deadly virus inside and/or on the exterior of your home or building, especially on high-touch areas such as counter-tops, doors, door handles, etc. – leaves your family, your staff or your clients vulnerable to infection or contagion. This calls for COVID-19 viral decontamination by an experienced, professional Covid-19 cleaning company.
COVID-19 / Coronavirus Cleaning Protocols
Coronavirus cleaning protocols have been established – and are being updated – at the highest levels, such as the WHO, CDC, Health Canada, Public Health Ontario & Toronto Public Health. These coronavirus cleaning protocols focus on cleaning materials used to clean frequently touched surfaces in a workplace or home that may become contaminated with coronavirus. Routine cleaning is a vital part of any effective viral decontamination protocol. We use (and train for the use of) approved coronavirus-effective cleaners, disinfectants and (where available) disinfectant wipes.
The necessary frequency of coronavirus cleaning will depend on the type of workplace, number of people in an area, ventilation, vulnerability to COVID-19 and other factors. High touch areas (door handles, light switches, rails, countertops, etc.) are the main target for coronavirus cleaning protocols and should be cleaned at least 2x daily. However any area that could come in contact with humans (directly or indirectly through airborne aerosols) has the potential for COVID-19 contamination. That’s why the coronavirus cleaning protocols we follow – both for our own COVID-19 cleaning services as well as for our coronavirus cleaning training program – emphasize due diligence in establishing a COVID-19 cleaning regime that favours excessive caution.

Disinfecting Against the New Coronavirus Variants
While variants of the COVID-19 such as the SARS-CoV-2 B1.1.7 and B.1.351 have been proven to spread more rapidly, disinfection and proper hygienic practices remain effective ways to combat the virus. That means having First Response Cleaning disinfect your home or workplace is an effective means to stop the spread of the virus. If you believe there is a chance that COVID-19 is transmitted at your home or place of work, call us right away. We will assess the situation free of charge and provide you with an estimate.

Why Viral Decontamination Is Important
The global COVID-19 pandemic has shown the high priority of maintaining clean and sanitized premises to prevent coronavirus infection. Despite best efforts, however, there are multiple weak links in the chain of sanitary conditions in any home, business or commercial location. The more people coming through, the higher the likelihood that COVID-19 contamination or coronavirus infection could occur. If contamination goes unchecked, coronavirus can spread from one
person to another by means of coughing, talking, etc., and infection from touching surfaces. In an office, store, or commercial / industrial facility, where many people are passing through the same space & touching the same surfaces, COVID-19 contamination or coronavirus infection can lead to a mass health & safety issue. COVID-19 viral decontamination is the only answer. It helps restore proper sanitization to the premises and brings a sense of trust amongst your staff, clients and/or family.

Frequently Asked Questions
Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV), Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV) and the current global health emergency: Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV). COVID-19 is a sometimes severe respiratory disease (sickness) that can result from the exposure to a previously unknown coronavirus now named Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV).
The best step you can take to fight the spread of COVID-19 is to wash your hands – constantly, religiously and vigilantly. On top of that, you’ll want to minimize your exposure to the coronavirus by touching as few surfaces as possible when in public areas or anywhere outside your home. Social distancing is also being emphasized as a way to combat COVID-19. Currently a physical distance of at least 2m is recommended between you and other people at all times. For your home or business, regular cleaning – especially of high-touch surfaces – is another important part of the fight against COVID-19.
To protect against the transmission of COVID-19, there are steps you can take at home or at your office. Wiping down surfaces which are frequently touched with disinfectant chemicals is an effective means to slow the spread of the virus. Health Canada has a comprehensive list of chemicals and products which can effectively sanitize surfaces. For more in-depth coronavirus cleaning, contact us to arrange a COVID-19 viral decontamination of your home or office.
Coronavirus decontamination training is a service offered by First Response Training where we educate and train employees on the proper procedures for reducing the risk of transmission of COVID-19. Our training covers how to decontaminate surfaces, keeping employees safe, COVID-19 cleaning protocols, and more. We will help your business reopen with confidence that all appropriate COVID-19 protection steps are taken.
Both disinfection and decontamination are processes by which microbes and viruses are killed or eliminated. Decontamination reduces the microbial contamination of materials or services and is most often accomplished using chemical disinfectants. Decontamination is done to make an environment such as an office or home safer for its occupants by dramatically reducing the presence of microbes. Disinfection is the elimination of virtually all pathogenic organisms in an area, and is often impossible to achieve in living spaces and offices due to the variety of materials present. COVID-19 Viral Decontamination for homes and offices is an effective way to reduce the risk of viral transmission.
