Combating COVID-19: The Science Behind Clean and Safe Spaces

Redline Restoration Team • April 4, 2024

Hey there, neighbor. If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that keeping our homes, businesses, and community spaces clean and safe really matters. With COVID-19 still floating around, having the right cleaning and disinfection protocols in place is one of the best ways we can look out for each other and stop the spread.


Let’s talk about what that really means and how we at Redline Restoration are here to help make it simple and effective for you.



How COVID-19 Spreads and Why Surfaces Matter


We know COVID-19 spreads mainly through the air when someone coughs, sneezes, or even just talks. But did you know the virus can also live on surfaces for a while? That means countertops, door handles, keyboards, and light switches can all become hotspots for spreading germs if not cleaned properly.


How long the virus sticks around depends on things like the material, the temperature, and the humidity. The bottom line is that a surface that looks clean might still be carrying something you definitely don’t want to bring home.



What Makes a Disinfectant Work


Not all cleaning products are created equal. A true disinfectant does more than just wipe away dirt; it actually kills or deactivates viruses like COVID-19. Products with ingredients like bleach, alcohol, or hydrogen peroxide are great at breaking down the virus so it can’t infect you or anyone else.


The trick is using the right disinfectant for the job and making sure it’s applied the right way. You want to give it enough time to sit and work its magic, especially on high-touch areas. That’s where the pros can really make a difference.



Why Professional Disinfection Makes a Big Difference


Sure, cleaning your space on your own helps. But for serious peace of mind, especially in places with a lot of people coming and going, professional disinfection is the way to go.


At Redline Restoration, we use EPA-approved disinfectants and the same equipment trusted in hospitals and high-risk environments. This means we don’t just clean surfaces, we reduce pathogens to safer levels you can count on. Studies have shown that professional-grade disinfection leads to a significantly lower risk of infection than basic cleaning alone.
