Disinfection Fogging

At Cleaning 24x7, we provide specialist disinfection fogging services for a wide range of environments and across the UK.

Fogging delivers rapid, contactless sanitisation by dispersing fine disinfectant particles that target airborne and surface pathogens, helping maintain hygiene in high-risk or high-traffic settings.

Our certified technicians use advanced fogging equipment and proven disinfectants to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and mould in schools, healthcare facilities, offices, hospitality venues, transport hubs, and public buildings.

Whether required for routine infection control or after a confirmed contamination, we ensure safe, compliant, and efficient decontamination.

How Is Disinfection Fogging Used Across ?

Disinfection fogging is a treatment that distributes ultra-fine disinfectant mist throughout a space to neutralise airborne and surface pathogens.

The fog reaches vents, ceilings, corners, and difficult-to-access surfaces, making it ideal for large rooms or complex layouts. It is widely used after infectious outbreaks, in high-footfall premises, or anywhere traditional surface cleaning is insufficient.

How Much Does Professional Fogging Disinfection Cost?

The cost of disinfection fogging starts from £100–£150 for small spaces and exceed £500 for large commercial or multi-level buildings.

Pricing is influenced by building size, service frequency, layout complexity, and whether emergency or out-of-hours fogging is required.

What Types of Premises Benefit Most From Fogging Services?

Premises that benefit from fogging include:

• Healthcare environments – Clinics, GP surgeries, dental practices, and care homes.

• Educational settings – Schools, nurseries, colleges, and university facilities.

• Hospitality venues – Hotels, restaurants, bars, and event spaces.

• Commercial buildings – Offices, co-working areas, call centres, and retail units.

• Industrial sites – Warehouses, manufacturing plants, and logistics depots.

• Residential properties – Homes needing decontamination after illness, hoarding, or pest incidents.

Is Fogging Effective Against Viruses, Bacteria, and Mould?

Disinfection fogging is highly effective at neutralising viruses, bacteria, and mould spores.

Approved disinfectants target pathogens such as influenza, coronavirus, E. coli, MRSA, and airborne fungi, meeting recognised EN testing standards. Many clients request fogging seasonally or after confirmed contamination to maintain ongoing protection.

How Long Does It Take to Complete a Full Fogging Treatment?

A disinfection fogging session can take from 30 minutes for small rooms or vehicles to several hours for multi-floor buildings.

After application, a dwell time of 30–60 minutes is typically required for the mist to settle and dry. Most providers carry out fogging outside business hours or at night to minimise disruption.

Are Fogging Services Safe for Use in Food and Healthcare Settings?

Disinfection fogging services often use food-safe, non-toxic, and hypoallergenic disinfectants suitable for sensitive environments.

Technicians follow strict protocols to avoid cross-contamination, ensuring proper ventilation and appropriate PPE usage. Before treatment, the area is assessed to match the correct disinfectant with regulatory requirements.

Do Businesses Require Disinfection After Confirmed Contamination?

Businesses often require professional disinfection fogging after confirmed exposure to viruses such as COVID-19, norovirus, or other infectious pathogens.

Deep cleaning and fogging ensure the premises meet safety standards before reopening and help demonstrate compliance for audits or insurance requirements. Documentation of completed disinfection may also be provided.

What Chemicals and Equipment Are Used During Fogging Treatments?

Disinfection fogging teams use advanced equipment such as:

• ULV cold foggers – For fine mist distribution across large areas.

• Electrostatic sprayers – Ensuring even surface coverage with charged particles.

• Thermal fogging units – Used where deep penetration of disinfectant is required.

• Broad-spectrum disinfectants – Including biocides, antiviral agents, and quaternary ammonium compounds.

• Eco-friendly options – Biodegradable and child/pet-safe solutions for sensitive sites.

Is Emergency or Out-of-Hours Fogging Available Within the Area?

Emergency disinfection fogging is available with same-day or within-hours response for critical environments.

This service is essential for healthcare sites, logistics centres, and facilities that cannot afford prolonged downtime. Out-of-hours scheduling is also commonly used by schools, gyms, offices, and hospitality venues.
