How often should a dental or vet practice be professionally cleaned?

By Rokas Poska · Updated September 2026

Your own infection control policy already sets the standard for treatment rooms, and that is not something a cleaning company decides for you. What we get asked about is everything around it — reception, waiting rooms, staff areas — and how often that genuinely needs attention.

It depends on footfall, not floor size

A small practice seeing thirty patients a day and a larger one seeing over a hundred need very different schedules, even if the buildings are a similar size. Footfall through reception and the waiting room is what drives how quickly a space looks tired, not square footage.

What is realistic at each frequency

Roughly how practices tend to land on a schedule:

What we clean, and what stays with your own protocol

We clean reception, the waiting area, toilets, staff areas and general non-clinical floors and surfaces, on whichever of the schedules above fits your practice. Treatment-room clinical decontamination is not something we take on — that stays with your own in-house protocol or specialist provider, and we work around it rather than in place of it.

Getting a fair quote

The same principle applies here as with any commercial premises — we visit first, look at the actual space and footfall, and quote a fixed price for the frequency that makes sense, rather than pricing blind off a rate card.

We clean dental and veterinary practices across Kent, scheduled around your appointments.
