COPING UP WITH COVID AND WHY IT IS NEEDED TO HIRE A CLEANING SERVICES COMPANY

The pandemic has made us more aware of hygiene and cleanliness. People want their homes to become super clean, which is why they opt for Covid cleaning services. Here are some reasons why it is necessary to hire a cleaning services company:

When hiring a Covid cleaning service, you can expect a deep-cleaning experience. Professionals have a cleaning checklist to provide quality service with 100% satisfaction. Dirt, allergens, dust, germs, and bacteria will be thoroughly removed along with the Coronavirus. Hiring a professional cleaning service will make your house shiny and clean and ensure a healthier living environment for you and your family.

Daily cleaning of our homes is well and good, but there are areas that we tend to overlook. Tight areas that are difficult to reach might not be cleaned. Expert cleaners will not skip any spot when cleaning your house. Attention to detail is very important in this era because the Covid virus attaches to areas we usually touch. Professional cleaners also use quality cleaning products that clean your house efficiently and swiftly. More importantly, these Covid cleaning services in Sydney are trained and certified professionals to provide the best cleaning service.

If you work long hours in the office, cleaning will be the last on your list when you arrive home. Hiring a cleaning service will lift this burden off your shoulders. You can relax while they are cleaning your home for you. 

Always thinking about the status of cleanliness in your home will give you anxiety attacks. If your home is not clean, your and your family’s health will be affected. Bacteria, germs, and the virus will breed in an unclean environment. You will then be exposed to illnesses. Aside from professional cleaning, they are well-trained in health and safety, ensuring that they follow safety guidelines while working inside your house.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES

So many cleaning solutions today work well but are harsh on the environment. Cleaning chemicals can have a huge impact on the environment, and not in a positive way. As a cleaning company, we are aware of how cleaning can impact the environment, and how to minimize these negative impacts on the environment. We take environmentally sustainable cleaning precautions which include the use of eco-friendly cleaning chemicals wherever possible which do not compromise on cleanliness standards and quality.

We are a professional cleaning company with a focus on going above and beyond what you might expect when you have the office cleaned, so you have nothing to worry about and will know the job is done right.

TIPS FROM THE PROFESSIONALS

Here are some tips from the professionals:

  • Clean your entire home often, not just once a week.
  • The kitchen and bathroom should be paid special attention.
  • Door handles, push pads, and telephones are a concern.
  • Use an antibacterial spray or wipe.

Covid cleaning services are also essential in bringing back businesses like gyms and salons to bring their customers back. Office-based businesses will need help deep cleaning and disinfecting their workstations to ensure their employees’ health and safety. Professional cleaners are also needed once an employee turns out to be Covid-positive, and the office must be disinfected again.

A clean and healthy home is a must, especially during these times. Hiring covid cleaning services in Sydney is one of the best decisions you will ever make to ensure the health and protection of your family.

HOW DO WE CLEAN FOR COVID-19?

Storm International provides coronavirus cleaning services. If there’s a COVID-19 case in your facility, we’ll come in quickly and thoroughly disinfect your workplace.

Our professional staff goes through extensive WHS training and holds BSCAA accredited disease cleaning certificates. You can be rest assured that your premises are going to be COVIDsafe after we leave. We take the COVID-19 cleaning process very seriously.

You’ll find us in Sydney, NSW, Melbourne, among many other regions in Australia.

We take the following steps to make sure that everything runs smooth and everyone’s safe.

The first step is receiving the call from our client with a report of a COVID-19 case. We immediately notify the client that the office or other premises need to be empty before we arrive. It’s necessary to ventilate the space for at least two to eight hours before our arrival. The period needed will vary from one case to another. It’s also essential to remove all the sensitive materials from various surfaces in the office. That includes objects such as documents and food. After the area is ready for cleaning, we arrive at the site, and our team of experts starts putting on all the personal protective equipment. It helps with infection control while they’re cleaning your space.

Once all the cleaning staff have put on their PPE equipment, they begin thoroughly cleaning all the hard surfaces in your premises. That includes even lift buttons, light switches, door handles, and any other surface your employees are in contact with regularly. We’re very thorough with the whole process because we want your employees to be safe when they’re back. That’s why we use disinfectants and professional cleaning equipment to eliminate any presence of COVID-19. To help with the decontamination, we can also use fogging machines at our client’s request. However, it’s not the best choice for COVID-19 disinfection, but it’s helpful with other diseases. The equipment we use includes mops, buckets, spray bottles and pump-action sprayers for bigger spaces. All our cleaning services align with the WHO recommendations and with environmental cleaning principles. After finishing the disinfection, we perform a quality check to ensure that all the hard surfaces are COVIDsafe compliant. The last step is the careful removal of all PPE equipment which goes in leak-proof bags, which are then taken in black garbage bags off-site.

After we’re finished with our sanitising and COVID-19 cleaning services, the area needs ventilation for around one to two hours. Then, your employees can return to the premises and continue with regular business operations. If there’s another COVID-19 case in the future, the whole procedure needs to repeat. It’s a highly infectious disease that spreads through droplets that can be anywhere in the office surroundings.

HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF AND EMPLOYEES AT YOUR PREMISES?

Prevention is the most crucial step when it comes to COVID-19. There are several ways in which you can keep your employees safe throughout the pandemic. They are:

  • Work from home – If possible, keep your employees at home as long as possible. That lowers the chance of the disease spreading significantly. Any new COVID-19 case is automatically an isolated incident, and there’s no risk of it spreading to other employees.
  • Use PPE – If your employees have to work from your business premises, they need education on the best PPE practices.
  • Put signs throughout the office – Use posters to remind the employees about the COVID-19 prevention practices. It’s an effective way of keeping everyone safe.
  • Regular office disinfection and cleaning – Create a cleaning schedule that’ll keep your office space disinfected throughout the pandemic.
  • Practice social distancing – Remind your employees not to get too close to one another. Social distancing in combination with personal protection equipment is the best prevention.

Following the above mentioned steps will keep employees at your office safe from COVID-19.

BASIC PROTECTIVE MEASURES AGAINST COVID-19

Prevention is the best cure when it comes to coronavirus spreading. Following the protective measures proposed by the WHO is the best way to remain safe from COVID-19. Some of the most crucial protective measures are:

  • Correct mask use – Make sure that the protective mask is covering both your mouth and nose.
  • Limit time in closed space – Avoid spending time in closed areas. If you have to, limit the amount of time you’re inside. Opt for meeting people outside as it significantly lowers the chances of getting sick.
  • Respect social distancing – There’s no need to get too close to anyone. Keep your distance from people to reduce the chance of catching the virus.
  • Hand hygiene – Regularly and thoroughly wash your hands. It’s one of the best ways of staying safe.
  • Avoid touching your nose, mouth, and eyes – When infected droplets get in touch with your nose, mouth, or eyes, you’ll likely get infected. Therefore, avoid touching them.
  • Disinfect your surroundings – Take some time to disinfect your close surroundings, such as your desk and computer.

We at Storm International suggest that you follow these protective measures against coronavirus. It’ll significantly reduce the chance of getting infected.

KNOWING SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

Sydney has no centre. It is divided into 10 villages with unique characteristics: The Central Business District (CBD), Harbour areas, Northern Suburbs, Newtown, Surry Hills, Redfern, Bondi, and Haymarket. It can be difficult to navigate since there is no metro, only trains, buses, and ferries to service the public. Town Hall Station serves the CBD. You can access the TripView app in advance, so you’ll know which route to take.

Australia is an expensive country. This is mainly due to its public transport, cost of living, and the price of cigarettes. Real estate is also luxurious. An apartment in Sydney costs AUD 830,000. Weekly rentals are double what you’ll pay in New South Wales.

Cafes can be found everywhere. The menu includes the long black (Americano) and ristretto (a concentrated espresso shot with a sweet cream part). There’s a claim that the flat white was invented in Sydney, which Starbucks is just distributing.

In London, sitting up front with a taxi driver is not customary. In Sydney, it’s typical to ride in the front seat of a cab. It’s not usual to tip, though. Sydney is not a tipping culture.

WORDS ARE SHORTER IN AUSTRALIA

You would often hear “G’day, mate” in Sydney. Other examples include Maccas (McDonald’s), exy (expensive), cozzie (swimming gear), Servo (gas station), arvo (afternoon), vego (vegetarian food), and thong as flip-flops!

Every beach in Sydney has its fish and chip shops. Drop by early morning at the Sydney Fish Market to get the best catch. You can also attend its cooking school to learn what to do with your fresh seafood.

Beer serving measurements are different here. Pub-goers can order a pony (pint or half-pint), a pot (285mL), a schooner (425mL), or a pint (570mL). These names go back to World War II when pint glasses were removed from New South Wales pubs. Drive-through liquor stores are called bottle shops.

There is not one single Australian food. You can find a mix of cultures in Sydney – Italian, Greek, Lebanese, Indian, Thai, Taiwanese, and Vietnamese. It is home to the original Bill’s (Bill Granger).

ALMOST HALF OF SYDNEY'S RESIDENTS WERE BORN OVERSEAS

Out of 49.1% of residents born overseas, 34.8% come from a non-English speaking country. The biggest immigrant groups are from East Asia, Greece, and the Middle East, aside from Kiwis and Brits.

Wear sunscreen. Sydney has beaches, harbours, and parks. It has good weather all year round, with temperatures seldom going below 45 degrees in the winter and above 95 degrees in the summer. Because of this, one of its greatest attractions is outdoor life. However, its sun is not like the sun in other places. Australia’s ozone layer has depleted between 5-9% since the 1960s. You will burn even on a cloudy day.

Shark! Most shark attacks happen on the West Coast. The Bull Shark is the most dangerous type of shark in Sydney’s rivers, so do not swim in them, especially at dusk. Also, there are plenty of sharks in Sydney Harbour.

Sydney culture has something for everyone. It’s especially good for people who enjoy coffee, barbecues, and free healthcare. Come visit Sydney. The outback is waiting for you.

FAQS

What is the Best Disinfectant for Surfaces During COVID-19?

Removing the presence of coronavirus for surfaces is possible with virucidal disinfectants. These products are either based on ethanol or sodium hypochlorite, as the World Health Organisation officially stated.

Closing down your workplace for COVID-19 cleaning services is not necessary for all situations. If the positive person has used your space partially, you can use the rest of the facility while those areas are disinfected. However, if the person has spent plenty of time on the premises, closing everything down might be necessary to ensure everyone’s safe from contracting coronavirus.

Generally speaking, the most important rules to follow include regularly cleaning the premises and working with a qualified Australian provider of commercial cleaning services in Sydney. That’ll ensure that your office is up to the standards of the DHHS COVIDsafe cleaning program. Storm International will keep your premises professionally disinfected. We’re one phone call away.
