The NHS Trust says
“as our hospital started gearing up for Covid-19 we had concerns about our ability to meet the demand for decontamination of rooms and areas that had been used to treat and assess potential Covid-19 patients. Ingot Services was engaged by our Estates team to assist with the decontamination and deep cleaning of these areas.
“Their work has been closely assessed by myself and my head of Infection Control. We have been hugely impressed with what we have seen. Their processes and procedures are well thought through and well delivered. Their commitment to provide the safest levels of protection for their staff and thorough decontamination and cleaning of the areas they attend to is very clear. They don’t cut corners. In fact, we have learned much from them, especially with their system of having a team supervisor, directing and recording on checklists what has been done as well directing and controlling each individual when removing PPE.”

Coronavirus Disinfection Cleaning FAQs
What is decontamination cleaning?
Decontamination cleaning is broadly defined as a series of cleaning processes by which infectious agents or dangerous contaminants are destroyed or removed in order to prevent the spread of infection. Particularly effective in helping prevent the spread of COVID-19 within commercial spaces following contact with the virus, Ingot Services' decontamination cleaning service uses a tailored combination of cleaning and disinfection methods including surface wiping, deep cleaning, chemical fogging, and ventilation hygiene cleaning in order to help ensure the removal of COVID-19 traces.
What is is chemical fogging?
Chemical fogging is a highly effective method of decontamination cleaning, used where suitable throughout many COVID-19 cleaning services - particularly to disinfect larger rooms or spaces. Conducted by fully qualified specialists equipped with appropriate PPE, chemical fogging involves the airborne spread of various disinfectants throughout a room or space. Though this process is commonly used, Ingot Services are able to offer a number of decontamination alternatives for spaces in which fogging cannot be used.
How long does COVID cleaning take?
The amount of time taken to complete a COVID-19 decontamination clean is primarily dependent on the size and complexity of the space requiring cleaning. Whilst a smaller commercial space may take just a few hours to be entirely disinfected, a more complex, larger space may take a longer time. In addition to this, the extent of cleaning required must be taken into consideration. A clean involving fogging and surface cleansing may take a shorter amount of time than buildings requiring this and a ventilation system decontamination, for example.
Ingot services are proud to offer a free, no-obligation consultation service for those looking to establish a time and price estimate for their tailored COVID-19 cleaning service.
How much does COVID cleaning cost?
The cost of COVID-19 cleaning is highly dependent on a number of factors - primarily the size and scope of the space requiring decontamination (e.g. a small retail space vs an entire hospital ward), the cleaning methods involved, whether your cleaning service is offered on a contractual or one-off basis, and your selected provider. As COVID-19 cleaning requirements can vary so significantly, the vast majority of service providers will charge within a set price range according to individual circumstance.
Ingot services are proud to offer our clients a free, no-obligation consultation, during which we’ll evaluate your ductwork cleaning requirements, and establish a price, which can be later sent over email.
Is COVID cleaning necessary?
Effective COVID cleaning is essential to the continued operation of businesses and buildings across a number of sectors, particularly those previously exposed to COVID-19, or exposed to COVID-19 on a regular basis (e.g. hospitals and healthcare facilities).
Ingot's COVID-19 cleaning service is tailored to the individual circumstances of our clients, but commonly involves the wiping down and decontamination of all present surfaces, chemical fogging, and ventilation cleaning - eradicating all traces of the virus, and ensuring the creation of a safe environment for building users.
