SERVPRO of Manahawkin is Here to Help with proactive cleaning for Coronavirus

Viruses in our midst are constantly spreading from person to person with every cough, sneeze and breath we take. While you cannot permanently kill a virus, you can stop spreading them by keeping yourself and your work environment clean. But HOW do you do that? And WHAT do you have to clean to better your odds? 

What to Clean... 

We won’t tell you that you need do a deep clean scrub of every inch of your office every few hours. We will tell you that commonly used surfaces should be cleaned as often as possible. Think kitchen counters, doorknobs, light switches, coffee pots, etc. Properly cleaning surfaces that are shared with others and used often, will prevent any viruses which are latching onto the surface, from latching onto you. 

How to clean... 

The idea of removing any traces of germs on common surfaces seems simple enough, right? Well that depends on whether or not you actually disinfected the surface you set out to clean. To accomplish a truly clean surface is a two-step process. First, you must clean any dirt and debris left over with a surface cleaner. Once this is done, you follow-up with a disinfecting cleaner to take care of the germs. We don’t suggest skipping the first step, it is crucial to the disinfectant actually reaching the germs settled on the surface you’re cleaning. 

As the #1 choice in cleanup and restoration, we can minimize the spread of germs with a proactive cleaning for your business. Give SERVPRO of Manahawkin a call at (609) 549-0379.
