At SERVPRO of the North Rensselaer/South Washington Counties, we take pride in our work while we participate in the fight against COVID-19. With the emergence of COVID-19, we have received many calls from Local Businesses in need of the services that include disinfecting and sanitizing. Our protocols call for disinfection of all high touch areas. High Touch Area include: switches, door knobs, counter tops, handles from various appliances, toilets, sinks and hardware. Flooring is also a high touch area that many companies may disregard. Well, not SERVPRO!. The floors are one the most important high touch area that needs to be cleaned. When it comes to reducing the spread of germs in a indoor environment a major concerns is that many diseases are transmitted through the air. Droplet are released by individuals from coughing, sneezing, and even speaking. These contaminants are pulled by gravity to the ground which also serves as a transmission. Flooring surfaces are the most overlooked high touch area to disinfect. Even though contaminants do not typically stay on the floors, they are tracked throughout the facility on shoes, socks, purses, backpacks, and pets. Therefore, at SERVPRO, we make sure the flooring is cleaned properly then disinfected. Do your floors need a good scrubbing and disinfecting? If so, Give us a Call. 518-677-3444
