Prepare Your Property for Safe Occupancy
Safety and Sanitation Compliance in Pinellas County
Before residents, employees, or customers enter a newly constructed or renovated property in Pinellas County, the space must meet health and safety standards. Construction leaves behind dust, bacteria from materials, and surfaces that have been touched by multiple workers. Without proper sanitation, the environment can pose risks to respiratory health and general hygiene.
SANDTEK disinfects and prepares spaces for occupancy by cleaning and sanitizing all high‑touch surfaces, eliminating construction‑related hazards, and ensuring compliance with local health and safety standards. This includes wiping down door handles, railings, countertops, and fixtures with EPA‑approved disinfectants, and verifying that floors and walkways are free of sharp objects, exposed fasteners, or loose materials that could cause injury.
If your property in Pinellas County is nearing completion and you need to confirm it meets safety and sanitation requirements, contact SANDTEK to schedule a compliance cleaning.
What Safety and Sanitation Actually Require After Construction
We begin by identifying and removing hazards in Pinellas County including exposed nails, sharp edges, and loose debris that could cause cuts or trips. Next, we disinfect all high‑touch surfaces using EPA‑registered cleaners that kill bacteria and viruses left behind during construction. This includes door handles, light switches, countertops, handrails, and bathroom fixtures.
Once we finish, you will notice surfaces that are dry and odor‑free, floors that are safe to walk on without concern for sharp objects, and air that does not trigger coughing or irritation. The property will meet the standards required for occupancy, final inspections, or certificate of occupancy applications.
We do not provide mold remediation, lead paint abatement, or asbestos removal. If your property requires those services, they must be completed by certified specialists before sanitation can begin. Our work is designed for post‑construction environments where trades have finished and the structure is ready for final preparation.
Questions Property Managers and Owners Ask Before Occupancy
Clients often want to know what compliance entails and how long it takes to prepare a site for safe use. Below are answers to common concerns about safety and sanitation after construction.
What does sanitation compliance include?
It includes disinfecting all high‑touch surfaces, removing construction hazards, and verifying that the space meets health and safety standards for occupancy in Pinellas County. We also document the work for inspection or certification purposes when requested.
How do you disinfect surfaces after construction?
We use EPA‑registered disinfectants applied to door handles, countertops, railings, fixtures, and other frequently touched areas. Surfaces are wiped thoroughly and allowed to air dry to ensure full effectiveness.
Why is post‑construction sanitation necessary?
Construction exposes surfaces to bacteria, dust, and contaminants from tools, materials, and multiple workers. Disinfecting ensures the space is safe for occupants and reduces the risk of respiratory irritation or illness.
What hazards do you look for during safety checks?
We look for exposed nails, sharp edges, loose debris, unstable fixtures, and any material that could cause injury or block safe movement through the property. These are removed or reported if they require repair by a trade contractor.
