Raghwat Al Janoub Maintenance and Cleaning

Disinfection and sanitisation in Al Wisham, Riyadh

Al Wisham is an older residential quarter in central Riyadh, sitting south of Al Namudhajiyah and north of Umm Sulaim within Al Shumaisi municipality. Its blocks are mid-rise and aged, with shops along main roads. King Saud Road and Al Takhassusi Street are very close by, as is Riyadh TV Tower, all driving constant traffic. Disinfection here needs separate schedules for shops, blocks and shared passages.

Why disinfecting is separate from cleaning

  • Places people share

    Clinics, schools and shared offices see many different people in a single day.

  • After illness at home

    When someone in the household has been ill, what they leave on shared surfaces lingers for days.

  • Kitchens and food areas

    Surfaces where food is prepared need a sanitiser that is safe for food contact and leaves nothing behind.

  • Before moving into a home

    Before you move into a flat someone else lived in, you cannot know what they left on the surfaces and in the bathrooms.

Why the job is different in Al Wisham

Traffic here peaks at certain times because of nearby main roads. Passages and blocks need frequent disinfection because of traffic and dust from the roads. The whole method is set out in the details of our disinfection and sanitisation service.

  • Shops and blocks share the same building spaces

    Al Wisham has shops and flats in the same buildings. Lifts, passages and railings are used by customers and residents. Disinfection cannot follow a purely residential pattern.

  • King Saud Road dust and vehicle exhaust

    King Saud Road and Al Takhassusi Street are very close, meaning high traffic and constant exhaust. Dust settles on facades, windows and passages. Disinfection must cover surfaces that appear clean.

  • Aged construction and worn grout

    Al Wisham's blocks are old and grout between units is deteriorated. Moisture infiltrates easily and mould appears in corners. Disinfection must penetrate small gaps.

What's Included

An older residential quarter in central Riyadh within Al Shumaisi municipality. Mid-rise apartment blocks with shops on main roads. King Saud Road and Al Takhassusi Street are very close.

  • Cleaned before disinfecting

    Dust and exhaust from the main road, old grout and touch surfaces are cleaned deeply before disinfection.

  • High-touch points

    Lift buttons, handles, railings, shop counter surfaces and passage touch points are treated with a concentrated-strength product.

  • Fogging the open areas

    Passages, stairs and lifts are fogged first, then shops, then flats, with full contact time before drying.

  • Contact time respected

    Contact time is thirty minutes minimum for passages and shops, one hour for flats because of age and deteriorated grout.

  • Ventilated before re-entry

    Ventilation starts by opening windows, doors and running fans. Passages and lifts need extra fan time before traffic resumes.

  • The product used, recorded

    We record product type, date and areas treated on a notice in the lobby so residents and shop staff know when disinfection took place.

The character of Al Wisham

Apartment district: residential blocks, repeated floors and shared entrances

Apartment blocks here are old and shared passages and stairs are narrow. Grout is deteriorated and dust from main roads infiltrates easily. Disinfection must focus on surfaces that do not appear soiled.

Questions before booking

Should a shop and its flat above be treated together or separately?

Separately. The shop is treated weekly or fortnightly. The flat is monthly. Passages are weekly.

Does vehicle exhaust from the main road affect disinfection quality?

Yes. Exhaust coats facades, windows and passages. Disinfection must include these surfaces that appear clean but are contaminated.

Do old grout lines need specialist treatment?

Yes. Old grout traps moisture and bacteria. We use a product that penetrates the gaps.

Does traffic around the TV Tower affect the disinfection schedule?

Traffic there is moderate but the location on a main road means higher dust levels.

Should passages and stairs be treated with shops or with flats?

Passages and stairs have their own weekly schedule. They serve everyone so they need frequent treatment.

How many times monthly should a single block in Al Wisham be disinfected?

Once monthly for flats. Passages and stairs are weekly. Shops are weekly or fortnightly.
