Professional Disinfection and Sanitization in Toronto and the GTA
Hospital grade disinfection for homes, offices and commercial spaces. Safe for families, staff and pets. One off and recurring service across Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan and the wider GTA.
The Difference Between Clean and Disinfected
Professional disinfection and sanitization is not the same thing as a thorough clean. Cleaning removes visible dirt and surface contamination. Disinfection eliminates the pathogens, bacteria and viruses that are not visible and cannot be removed by conventional cleaning products, regardless of how thoroughly they are applied.
My Property Care provides hospital grade disinfection and sanitization services for residential properties and commercial spaces across Toronto and the GTA. This is a service for households and businesses that need more than clean surfaces. They need surfaces and environments that have been treated to a documented microbial standard, using certified products that eliminate the specific pathogens that matter.
The people who book this service tend to fall into a few clear groups. Households where a family member has been seriously ill. Families moving into a newly purchased or rented property. Businesses that need to demonstrate a defined hygiene standard. And commercial facilities such as gyms, schools and healthcare adjacent spaces that carry a genuine duty of care around infection control.
Regular Cleaning
Removes visible dirt and surface grime. Useful for routine maintenance but does not eliminate bacteria, viruses or pathogens living on and inside surfaces.
Professional Disinfection
Uses certified hospital grade products applied at correct concentrations and contact times to achieve a documented log reduction in harmful pathogens including bacteria, viruses and fungi.
The Result
A treated environment rather than a collection of individually wiped surfaces. Measurable pathogen elimination, not just a reduction in visible dirt.
Why Hospital Grade Disinfection Is Different From What You Can Buy
Certified to a Higher Standard
Hospital grade disinfectants are required to demonstrate efficacy against a defined list of organisms at specified concentrations within defined contact times. Consumer products are tested under significantly less demanding conditions.
Application Method Matters
A spray bottle applied by hand leaves the majority of a room's surface area untreated. Professional equipment achieves consistent coverage across all surfaces, including the high touch points that manual application typically misses entirely.
Contact Time and Concentration
Disinfection fails when products are applied at the wrong dilution or wiped away too quickly. Our technicians apply all products at certified concentrations and maintain the correct contact time before the space is cleared for re-entry.
Health Canada Approved Products
All products we use meet Health Canada's approved drug product list requirements and are effective against a wide spectrum of pathogens relevant to residential and commercial infection control.

Residential Disinfection Services Across Toronto and the GTA
For residential properties across Toronto and the GTA, professional disinfection is most commonly requested in a handful of specific situations, each with its own particular requirements.
Post-Illness Disinfection
When a household member has had a serious infectious illness, the risk to other occupants does not end when they recover. Pathogens from respiratory illness can persist on surfaces for hours to days. Professional treatment reduces this ongoing transmission risk significantly.
Move-In Disinfection
One of the most practical investments a new homeowner or tenant can make before occupying a property. Previous occupants leave behind bacteria and pathogens that a standard pre-tenancy clean does not eliminate. Treatment before moving in covers every surface while it is accessible.
Vulnerable Occupants
Elderly family members, individuals with compromised immune systems, young infants and anyone undergoing medical treatment are at greater risk from routine pathogen exposure. Periodic professional disinfection provides a measurable reduction in environmental pathogen load.
Recurring Scheduled Service
Available for households that want ongoing scheduled treatment, with frequency tailored to specific household circumstances. Many clients with elderly parents or medically vulnerable family members set up quarterly or monthly treatments as routine property maintenance.
Commercial Disinfection Services for Toronto Businesses
Office Disinfection
An office with multiple occupants sharing surfaces and equipment accumulates pathogen exposure risk daily. Professional disinfection provides measurable protection and a demonstrable commitment to staff welfare.
Restaurants and Food Service
Food preparation environments are subject to specific hygiene requirements. Our food safe certified disinfection provides both the hygiene outcome required and documentation that supports compliance with health inspection requirements.
Gyms and Fitness Facilities
Gyms present a particularly high pathogen exposure environment. We use products and application methods appropriate for the equipment materials, many of which are sensitive to certain disinfectants suitable only for hard surfaces.
Schools and Healthcare Adjacent
Schools, childcare facilities and healthcare adjacent spaces carry a specific duty of care requiring a higher standard of environmental hygiene. We work with these facilities using certified products and documented processes that meet their operating standards.
What Commercial Clients Get
- Service scheduling around business hours to avoid disruption
- Documentation and service records for each visit
- Consistent standards across multiple sites or locations
- One off post-outbreak treatment or recurring scheduled program
- Certified products meeting Health Canada requirements
- Fully insured technicians on every commercial visit
Electrostatic Disinfection Application
Electrostatic disinfection significantly improves the coverage and efficiency of disinfectant treatment compared to conventional spray application. The technology works by charging the disinfectant solution as it passes through the applicator nozzle.
The charged particles are attracted to surfaces they pass near, including the backs and undersides of objects, complex surfaces and three dimensional items that spray application cannot reach from a single direction. Because the charged particles repel each other, the solution distributes itself evenly across the surface rather than pooling.
We use electrostatic application for larger commercial disinfection projects and for residential treatments where comprehensive coverage is the priority.
What Our Disinfection Service Includes
Every disinfection treatment we provide follows a consistent process designed to achieve genuine pathogen elimination rather than surface level treatment.
Space Walkthrough
We identify high touch points, priority areas, surface types and any areas with specific considerations such as electronics or sensitive materials.
Pre-Cleaning
Visibly soiled surfaces are cleaned before disinfectant application. Organic matter on surfaces can deactivate disinfectants, so cleaning always comes first.
Application
Disinfectant is applied using the appropriate method for the space, whether manual spray and wipe, broad spray or electrostatic application for larger spaces.
Contact Time
All products are applied at the correct concentration and maintained at the correct contact time to achieve certified efficacy. This is where most DIY disinfection fails.
Safe Re-Entry
The space is ventilated appropriately and safe re-entry times are confirmed with the client. Typically 30 to 60 minutes after treatment is complete.
Safety for Occupants, Children and Pets
One of the most common concerns about professional disinfection is whether the products and process are safe for the people and animals in the space after treatment. The answer is straightforward.
The hospital grade disinfectants we use are formulated and tested for use in occupied environments including healthcare settings where patient safety is paramount. They are safe for re-entry after the appropriate ventilation period and once treated surfaces are dry.
We do not use products that require extended exclusion periods, protective equipment for re-entry, or that leave residues incompatible with normal occupancy. The aim is a properly disinfected environment that returns to normal use quickly.
Safe for Children
We discuss specific products and re-entry timeline with every residential client before treatment begins. No surprises for families with young children.
Safe for Pets
All products we use are safe for pets once ventilation has occurred and surfaces are dry. We confirm this timeline with every client before we begin.
Food Safe Certified
For food preparation surfaces in kitchens, we use products specifically approved for use in food contact environments with appropriate rinse protocols.
Typical safe re-entry time after treatment. We confirm the exact timeline with every client before we begin.
When to Book a Professional Disinfection Treatment
Professional disinfection is appropriate in a wider range of situations than most people consider until they actually need it.
After a Household Illness
Following influenza, norovirus, COVID-19 or any highly contagious respiratory illness. Reduces ongoing transmission risk between occupants significantly.
Before Moving In
Before any furniture is brought in. This is when treatment is most effective since every surface is accessible and can be comprehensively treated.
After Flood or Water Damage
Following a water damage event, the affected area requires both remediation and disinfection to address the biological contamination that accompanies these incidents.
Commercial Outbreak Response
Following confirmed illness among staff or customers, before reopening after a closure, or following a health inspection requiring documented hygiene improvement.
Vulnerable Household Routine
As a routine environmental hygiene measure for households with medically vulnerable occupants rather than only as a reactive response to a specific event.
Before a Major Event
Before hosting a large gathering, renting out a property short term, or welcoming newborns or immunocompromised visitors into the home.
