Premises disinfection, mould and odour removal in Riga and the surrounding region — We contact you within 5 minutes of your enquiry.

Disinfection by property type

Every type of premises has its own constraints — opening hours, materials, requirements, and how long the space can be left empty.

Technically, disinfection is much the same everywhere. In practice it varies a great deal — not because the microorganisms differ, but because the conditions we have to work in do.

In a flat the main constraint is that people live there. In a production facility it is the process. In a restaurant it is opening hours and food safety. In a kindergarten it is child safety and the term-break calendar. Those constraints, not the biology, decide the method, the timing and the price.

How we choose the approach

Site inspection

We assess the floor area, materials, ventilation and operating pattern.

Establishing the constraints

How long the space can stand empty, when work is possible, which materials are sensitive.

Choosing the method

We choose the method to suit the site, not out of habit.

Agreeing the working time

On commercial sites we normally work outside opening hours.

Treatment and handover

We do the work and tell you when the premises can be used normally again.

The method is set not by the microorganism but by how long the premises may stand empty and what inside them must not be touched.

What actually differs between property types

In one room we can start straight away; in another the work has to be booked a month ahead. Four things create that difference, and they are worth settling in the first conversation.

1The time windowIn a flat the residents set it, in a shop it is the night between closing and opening, in a production facility it is planned downtime, and in a care home there is no such window at all.
2What stays in the roomStock, equipment, documents, electronics, open food, plants and animals. This decides whether fogging is an option in the first place.
3Who is orderingOwner, tenant, property manager or site manager. Each carries a different responsibility and a different decision process.
4PaperworkA private client usually just needs a description of the work done. Food premises and institutions need a completion record and a log.

When work is possible in each type of premises

The time window is what most often decides whether the job can be done the way the client imagined. In some premises it is generous, in others the weekly schedule sets it, and in some there is never an empty room at all.

  • Offices, shops and restaurants — after hours or at weekends; the window is the evening and the night.
  • Production facilities — during planned downtime or between shifts, booked weeks ahead.
  • Schools and kindergartens — a term break or the summer is the easiest time.
  • Hotels — between check-out and the next guest's arrival, so we choose the method by how quickly the room is usable again.
  • Care homes — no window at all; we work zone by zone, treating one part while residents are in another.

Flats and private houses give the most flexible window, but there is still a condition: after fogging or ozone treatment the space must stand empty for a set period and then be aired. We tell you the exact time before the work, not after — precisely because you need to plan around it.

The commonest mistake in choosing the scope

Most calls are about a visible symptom — a patch on a wall, a smell in a corridor — and ask us to treat that spot. In practice a building always has several zones that are connected to one another: a smell in the stairwell comes from the basement, an office smell from the ventilation, a shop-floor problem from the stockroom and the waste area.

So an inspection looks wider than a single room. It does not change the price, but it often changes the scope of the work — and sometimes it turns out no treatment is needed at all, because fixing the ventilation regime or a trap seal is enough.

✓ Tell us straight away

  • Floor area and number of rooms.
  • When the premises can stand empty, and for how long.
  • What stays inside — stock, equipment, documents.
  • Whether you need paperwork for accounting or a log.

✗ What not to expect

  • An exact price over the phone for a large site without an inspection.
  • That treatment will remove a damp cause sitting in the structure.
  • That one visit will solve a problem whose source is unchanged.
  • That we will do building work, install ventilation or lay damp-proofing.

What paperwork each type of premises needs

A private client usually just needs to know what was done and from when the space can be used. A company needs a contract, an invoice and a completion record, because that is an accounting document. For food premises and institutions the completion record matters even more: it proves that treatment happened on a given date at a given scope, and it is filed with the site's hygiene documentation or internal log.

Where we work regularly, we keep a log of the work carried out — a list of dates, zones and scope. It is a simple thing, but it is the first thing asked for in an inspection, and it is usually the thing that is missing when treatments have been ordered ad hoc from different contractors.

For businesses and institutions

For companies we provide a contract, an invoice and completion paperwork. For regular treatment we draw up a schedule and work in a way that does not interrupt the site's operations — usually outside working hours.

On commercial sites we price by floor area, so the rate per square metre is lower on a large site than on a small one. If you manage several sites, it is worth combining them into one quote and one schedule, both for the price and for the logistics.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work outside business hours?

Yes. On commercial sites it is the norm — in shops, offices and restaurants we usually work after hours or at weekends.

Do you issue paperwork for companies?

Yes — a contract, an invoice and a completion record. Where we work regularly we also keep a log of the work carried out, which can be filed with your company documentation. For scheduled treatment we maintain that log as well.

How long are the premises out of use?

Depending on the method and the floor area — from a few hours to half a day. We give you the exact time before the work so you can plan.

Can you treat several sites at once?

Yes. If you manage several sites we prepare a combined quote and schedule, and plan the visit so that a number of addresses are covered in one round.

Not sure which treatment you need?

Describe the situation — we will tell you whether treatment is needed at all, and which one.
