Disinfecting and Sanitizing Services

Sewage backups and dark water intrusions are more than nasty, smelly deposits – these damages also introduce harmful microorganisms into a structure. AOA removes the sewage, contaminants, and moisture, and helps ensure the structure is properly cleaned, disinfected, and deodorized.

 

An important point to remember is that disinfectants will not work if the surface to be disinfected is not clean before applying the disinfectant. It is almost impossible to disinfect dirt! In other words, cleaning and disinfection are two entirely separate procedures. The facility must be cleaned first. After the facility is cleaned, then it can be disinfected. The cleaning procedure may involve two steps, a dry cleaning followed by a wet cleaning. The process of dry cleaning removes the organic material before the wet cleaning occurs. With the dry cleaning residual dirt, debris, stains, and organic matter, which might neutralize the disinfectant, must be removed first.
