Disinfection & Sanitizing Services in Central Texas

Disinfection and sanitizing is the difference between a surface that looks clean and one that is actually safe to touch. At Texas Sparkle Services, we provide commercial disinfection and sanitizing across Central Texas — San Antonio, Austin, New Braunfels and San Marcos — using EPA-registered products and proven methods, including electrostatic spraying, to reduce the spread of viruses and bacteria in the places where people gather, work and learn.

Whether you need daily high-touch disinfection built into a janitorial plan, a one-time treatment before reopening, or fast-response service after an illness in your office or classroom, we do it correctly: clean first, then disinfect with the right product, at the right concentration, for the labeled contact time. Disinfectant sprayed over dirt and wiped away in seconds does almost nothing — real disinfection follows the science.

Cleaning vs. Sanitizing vs. Disinfecting

These words are used interchangeably, but they mean different things — and knowing the difference is how you buy the right service:

A good program uses all three in order: clean the surface, then sanitize or disinfect based on the risk. We build that logic into every plan.

What Our Disinfection Service Covers

High-Touch Point Disinfection

The surfaces most hands touch spread the most germs: door handles and push plates, light switches, shared desks and countertops, phones and keyboards, elevator buttons, handrails, appliance and vending controls, and restroom fixtures. We target these points on a defined schedule so the highest-risk surfaces get the most attention.

Electrostatic Spraying

For large rooms and complex layouts, electrostatic spraying charges the disinfectant so droplets wrap around and cling evenly to surfaces — even the sides and backs of objects a wipe would miss. It disinfects classrooms, open offices, gyms, waiting rooms and event spaces quickly and consistently.

Restroom & Wet-Area Disinfection

Restrooms are the highest-risk area in most buildings. We disinfect fixtures, partitions, floors and all touch points and pair it with our routine janitorial service so restrooms stay hygienic between deep treatments.

Outbreak & Reopening Response

When someone is sick or after a confirmed exposure, we provide fast-response disinfection of affected areas and shared touch points so you can reopen with confidence. This is also ideal before opening a new space or bringing staff back after a closure.

Who Disinfection & Sanitizing Is For

Our disinfection service fits any space where people share air and surfaces, including offices and coworking spaces, schools, daycares and churches, medical and dental offices, gyms and fitness studios, restaurants and break rooms, retail stores and salons, warehouses and manufacturing facilities, and property-management common areas. It layers on top of routine cleaning or stands alone as a one-time or emergency treatment.

Recommended Disinfection Frequency

How often you need disinfection depends on foot traffic, who uses the space and the season. Common guidance we build into plans:

Our Disinfection Process

1. Assessment — We identify high-risk zones, surfaces and touch points and confirm any product or safety requirements for your setting.
2. Clean First — Surfaces are cleaned so disinfectant can actually reach and kill germs, not just sit on dirt.
3. Disinfect Correctly — We apply EPA-registered products at the right concentration and honor the labeled dwell time, using electrostatic spraying where it fits.
4. Verify — Work is checked against a touch-point checklist so nothing high-risk is missed.
5. Maintain — We recommend a frequency and, where you want it, fold disinfection into a recurring janitorial plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting?

Cleaning removes dirt and many germs from a surface with soap and water. Sanitizing lowers the number of germs to a level considered safe by public-health standards. Disinfecting uses EPA-registered chemicals to kill a defined list of viruses and bacteria on hard surfaces. A proper program cleans first, then sanitizes or disinfects — because disinfectant applied over dirt does not work well.

What products do you use to disinfect?

We use EPA-registered disinfectants suited to each facility, applied at the correct concentration and left for the labeled dwell (contact) time so they actually kill germs rather than just wetting the surface. Where appropriate we offer lower-toxicity and eco-friendly options that are safer around children, patients and food areas.

What is electrostatic disinfection?

Electrostatic spraying charges the disinfectant as it leaves the sprayer so the droplets wrap around and cling evenly to surfaces, including the sides and backs of objects a wipe would miss. It covers large or complex spaces quickly and is ideal for classrooms, offices, gyms and waiting rooms.

Do you offer emergency or outbreak disinfection?

Yes. When a staff member or student is sick, or after a confirmed exposure, we provide fast-response disinfection of affected areas and high-touch points so you can reopen safely. We serve San Antonio, Austin, New Braunfels and San Marcos and schedule urgent visits where possible.

How often should high-touch surfaces be disinfected?

High-touch points — door handles, light switches, shared desks, elevator buttons, restroom fixtures — should be disinfected at least daily in most workplaces, and more often in schools, clinics and busy public spaces or during cold-and-flu season. We build the right frequency into your cleaning plan.

Is your disinfection safe for children and patients?

Yes. We select products and methods appropriate to the setting, follow label directions and dwell times, and can use lower-toxicity, eco-friendly disinfectants in schools, daycares, medical offices and homes so spaces are safe to reoccupy after treatment.
