Cleaning & Hygiene Services
Quills offer comprehensive Cleaning & Hygiene Services to enable you to take the preventative measures required to protect your employees, clients and visitors and help to reduce the spread of bacteria and germs within the workplace. Professional cleaning will ensure that high traffic areas such as meeting rooms, offices, toilets and reception areas are sanitised regularly, reducing the risk of disease and infection in the workplace. With industry accreditations to CHAS and Safe Contractor, our highly trained teams are also DBS checked and will work with you to plan and produce a schedule of regular commercial cleaning or a one-off anti-bacterial deep clean, or both if required.
Antimicrobial Surface Coating
The Covid-19 outbreak means keeping the workplace clean and sanitised has never been more important. Perfect for care homes, schools, gyms and offices, our antibacterial surface treatment provides sanitisation and peace of mind. The uniquely formulated coating prevents bacteria and viruses surviving on surfaces for 1 year on high traffic areas and typically for the lifetime of other surfaces. The clear coating can be applied to many items including handles, doors, tables, desks, lifts, chairs, tech screens, playground equipment and fabric too.
All works carried out come with a 12-month peace of mind guarantee and labels are clearly displayed on items that have been protected. You can also book a FREE onsite test to show the current bacteria levels on five surfaces of your choice before being treated and we’ll then show you the readings after the surface has been coated…you’ll be amazed by the results!
Legionella Water Testing
It is essential that buildings and estates carry out regular maintenance of their water systems in order to protect residents, workers, visitors and customers and prevent the occurrence of Legionella and other water borne bacteria. Our competitively priced water hygiene service offers a full and thorough monitoring and management of your building’s water system and we can also arrange Legionella risk assessments, water system disinfections, water sampling and microbiological analysis reports as required.

The air quality of your premises is hugely important. Clean air at the right temperature is vital for your staff’s health, wellbeing and productivity.

Modern buildings often have multiple AHUs placed throughout the building; Rooftop, Make-Up and Wall units. Our qualified service engineers are available for scheduled maintenance, reactive support and emergency repairs of all.
