San Ramon Disinfection and Sanitizing Services
Commercial disinfecting services for San Ramon workplaces, on a routine schedule or on request. We treat door hardware, restroom fixtures, break room appliances, shared devices and lobby touchpoints at times that suit your staff.
A written list of the points people touch
By midmorning in a San Ramon office, the same handful of surfaces has passed through dozens of hands: the lobby door pull, the elevator call button, the badge reader, the lever on the coffee machine. Our disinfection service puts every one of those points on a written list and treats each at a set frequency, so the work never rests on someone’s memory.
The list starts with a walk of your space. We mark entry hardware, stair rails, light switches, copier panels, shared phones, conference tables and chair arms, then ask which ones your staff reach for most. The busiest points are treated on every visit, while quieter ones rotate through a weekly pass.
Because the list is written down, it is easy to change. A new kiosk in the lobby or a hoteling desk area on the second floor goes onto the list the week it appears.
Why every surface is washed before it is treated
A disinfectant can only work on the surface it actually touches. Fingertip oils, coffee drips and fine dust leave a film that keeps the product away from the surface underneath, so our cleaners wash each surface with a detergent solution and wipe it dry before any treatment goes on.
Once applied, the EPA-registered product stays wet for the full dwell time printed on its label. Only after that window has passed is the surface wiped down or left to air dry. Skipping the wash or wiping too soon undoes the visit, which is why the sequence never changes from one night to the next.
Color-coded microfiber keeps the zones apart. Restroom cloths never travel to a break room counter, and every room gets a fresh cloth. We settle on the products with you at the walkthrough, and a product your building or a medical tenant already prefers goes straight onto the plan.
Cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting, defined
The three words often get used as if they meant one thing, but the CDC draws a line between them. Cleaning removes dirt, dust and grime from a surface with soap or detergent and water. Sanitizing brings the germs on a surface down to a safer level. Disinfecting applies an EPA-registered product that, left on the surface for its label dwell time, kills germs on that surface.
Our commercial disinfecting services move through those three steps in sequence. Every surface is cleaned first, break room counters and tables are sanitized, and the touchpoints on your list get an EPA-registered disinfectant held wet for the full label dwell time. Matching each surface to the step it needs keeps the program focused and the price tied to the work.
Restrooms and break rooms on a tighter rotation
Restrooms carry the highest touch count in most buildings. Faucet handles, flush valves, stall latches, soap and towel dispensers, partition doors, sinks and toilets are sanitized on every visit, and the exit door pull gets its own pass because everyone grabs it on the way out.
Break rooms come next. Refrigerator handles, microwave keypads, faucet levers, water dispenser buttons, vending selectors, table tops and chair backs are all treated, and counters are wiped and sanitized once staff have cleared them. Trash and recycling go out before the room is treated, so the cleaned surfaces stay that way.
For a campus floor with several kitchens and restroom cores, each one is logged separately. You can see at a glance which rooms were treated on which night.
Shared equipment, front desks and entrances
Hybrid offices share more gear than they used to. Reservable desks, docking stations, conference room remotes, video panel touchscreens and shared headsets all pass between people during the week. Electronics are handled with the product applied to the cloth, never sprayed onto the device, and screens get a wipe made for them.
Entrances set the tone for the rest of the building. Front door handles, push plates, reception counters, visitor sign-in tablets, elevator buttons inside and out, and stair rails form the first loop of every visit, so the lobby is ready before the first employee badges in.
Day porters add a midday round for buildings that want it. A porter on our day and night porter service works through the same list while the building is open, which keeps lobby hardware and restroom fixtures in shape during peak hours.
Extra disinfection when you call for it
Some weeks call for more than the routine. A large catered event, a board meeting with outside guests, the move-in to a newly leased suite or a stretch of absences on one team are all good reasons to book an extra visit. One call adds a single disinfection visit or a short run of them, timed after hours or over a weekend.
On-request work follows the same list and sequence as the routine, extended to every surface in the affected rooms instead of only the high-touch points. Desks, chairs, filing cabinet pulls, window sills and door frames all get the full treatment.
Suites coming off a remodel can pair this with our construction and renovation cleaning, so dust is gone before the first treatment goes down.
Disinfection across San Ramon buildings
San Ramon’s office campuses run on shared desks, busy conference wings and restroom cores that serve hundreds of people a day. Medical suites and schools get the same written list, timed to patient hours through medical office cleaning and to dismissal through school cleaning.
What sets the price of a disinfection program
Price follows the work. The number of touchpoints on the list and how often each is treated set the base, and the count of restrooms and break rooms adds to it. A program that rides along with nightly janitorial visits costs less than stand-alone trips, since the crew is already in the building.
Building size, after-hours or weekend timing, a midday porter round and the products chosen each shape the final figure. On-request visits are priced per visit by the rooms included. We walk the space with you, set the list together and then send a written quote.
A few useful answers
Common questions
Which surfaces belong on a disinfection list for a San Ramon office?
Entry door pulls, elevator buttons, badge readers, light switches, stair rails, restroom fixtures, break room appliance handles, conference tables and shared electronics. We build the final list with you during the walkthrough.
Can disinfection be added to our nightly janitorial visits?
Yes. The touchpoint list becomes part of each janitorial visit, so the same crew washes and then treats those surfaces on the nights you already have booked.
How are keyboards and touchscreens disinfected without damage?
The product goes onto a cloth first and the cloth goes onto the device. Nothing is sprayed onto keyboards, docking stations or screens.
Can we book one disinfection visit after a company event?
Yes. A single visit can be booked for the evening after the event or the following weekend, covering every surface in the rooms your guests used.
Who chooses the disinfectant products used in our building?
We choose them with you at the walkthrough. If your property manager or a medical tenant already specifies a product, that product goes on the plan.
Does sanitizing a surface also disinfect it?
No. Sanitizing lowers the germs on a surface to a safer level, while disinfecting uses an EPA-registered product, kept wet for its label dwell time, to kill germs on that surface. Both start with a cleaned surface.
