Is fogging alone a full cleaning and disinfection service?
No. Fogging-only service requires surfaces to be free from dust and grime. Cleaning removes soil first; suitable disinfection follows where required.


Auckland cleaning, floors & restoration
Everyone is furious about their safety during pandemic circumstances. The company offers MPI approved commercial-grade disinfectant services using fogging machines to fog commercial-grade disinfectants in hard to reach areas.
The short answer
An appropriate disinfection process considers surface condition, product suitability, contact time, ventilation and the people using the space.

Condition-led assessment
The visible material and condition help frame the moisture source, affected area, access and controls that should be discussed before a service scope is confirmed.

No. Fogging-only service requires surfaces to be free from dust and grime. Cleaning removes soil first; suitable disinfection follows where required.
The existing service scope includes wiping frequently touched surfaces with disinfectant and applying disinfectant with a ULV fogger.
The existing site information states approximately two to four hours, depending on ventilation.
No. It records the areas and touchpoints treated but cannot guarantee that illness will not occur.
Describe the current space, surface condition, priority touchpoints, occupants, operating hours and reason for treatment rather than relying on a past pandemic label. Existing dirt must be addressed first, and any product-led process must follow suitability, ventilation, contact-time and re-entry directions for the actual site.
Before requesting a quote
Identify priority rooms and frequently touched surfaces. Share operating hours, occupants and any current hygiene plan. For fogging-only work, ensure surfaces are free from dust and grime. Plan for the property to remain vacant for the stated post-fogging period and provide adequate ventilation. Discuss smoke or fire alarms and parking arrangements before attendance.
Realistic expectations
Fogging alone is not a substitute for removing dust, grime or other soil. Product suitability and label directions, including contact time, must be observed. Some surfaces or occupied environments may constrain the selected process. The service is not a guarantee against illness and should not be presented as a certification claim.

Scoping guidance
Cleaning removes soil from a surface; disinfection uses an appropriate product and contact process after cleaning where the situation calls for it.
The surface, product label, required contact time, ventilation and occupants all affect suitability. A treatment cannot guarantee that illness will not occur.
For workplaces, identify priority touchpoints, operating constraints and any site hygiene plan so the scope fits the current use of the space.
