GP Surgery Cleaning Services
GP surgeries combine busy waiting areas, clinical consulting rooms and supporting administration space, all of which need a disciplined approach to hygiene and touchpoint cleaning. RexCleaning works with practices across Northern Ireland to maintain consistent standards in line with your practice policies and patient hours.

What we discuss at a surgery walkthrough
GP surgeries have distinct requirements around patient flow, appointment scheduling and touchpoint hygiene. We agree these before any work starts.
- Scheduling around surgery hours and peak clinic times
- Waiting room, reception and accessible washrooms
- Staff and admin areas included in the programme
- Zone access and sign-in protocol confirmed before service starts
- Fully insured
- COSHH information where required
- RAMS provided where required
- AccessNI where relevant
- Regular quality checks
- Managed supplies where required
What GP surgery cleaning covers
A typical GP surgery cleaning programme covers the following areas. Scope and frequencies are confirmed in writing before work begins.
Patient waiting areas
Seating, flooring and patient-facing surfaces cleaned consistently, with touchpoint sanitisation at frequencies matched to session volume.
Reception desks and counters
High-contact surfaces at reception — desks, screens, payment points, door furniture — wiped down on every visit.
Patient washrooms
Toilets, basins, taps and fixtures sanitised on each visit, with consumable restocking where supplies are part of the contract.
Corridors and circulation areas
Floors and high-contact surfaces in corridors and stairwells, managing cross-traffic between clinical and waiting zones.
Consulting room surrounds
Non-clinical surfaces, skirting, floors and surrounds in or near consulting rooms, following your written instructions on access and sequencing.
Staff kitchens and admin offices
Staff-only areas included on the agreed schedule alongside patient-facing zones.
Supporting your hygiene baseline
Infection control is a shared priority. We focus on thorough cleaning of high-contact surfaces in waiting rooms, reception desks, door furniture and washrooms, using products and methods agreed with you.
- Outside patient hours where possible: early morning, lunchtime windows or end-of-day to reduce overlap with vulnerable patients
- Professionalism on site: all encounters with patients, carers and staff handled with discretion and minimal disruption
- COSHH information available for all products used on your premises, aligned to your practice records
- RAMS provided where required by your trust, PCN or premises landlord for contractor activity
- AccessNI checks can be arranged where your practice policy requires vetting for contractors on the premises
We support the baseline, not the clinical work
RexCleaning provides contract cleaning for waiting areas, reception, washrooms and supporting spaces. We do not replace statutory clinical waste or infection-prevention duties that remain with the practice.
Where we are asked to clean consulting room surrounds, we follow your written instructions on room readiness, product restrictions and access sequencing so clinical governance is not compromised.
How RexCleaning works
Every GP surgery cleaning contract starts with a site visit. We review the building and session patterns together before agreeing scope.
- 01
Site walkthrough
We visit to understand the layout, session times, restricted zones and access arrangements before agreeing scope.
- 02
Scope agreed
Areas, tasks, scheduling windows and documentation requirements confirmed in writing, aligned to your practice policies.
- 03
Team briefed
Alarm codes, discretion expectations and any patient-facing protocols confirmed with the team before the first visit.
- 04
Regular cleaning
Cleaning scheduled outside core patient hours where possible — early morning, lunchtime, or after close — to minimise disruption.
- 05
Standards reviewed
Service levels monitored and the specification revisited with the practice manager when session patterns or the building changes.
GP practice types we work with
GP surgery cleaning is tailored to the size of the practice, session volumes and governance requirements.
Single-site GP surgeries
One building, one agreed specification, scheduled around appointment sessions and session volume.
Multi-site practices
Practices operating from more than one building under the same partnership, with consistent standards across each location.
PCN and health centre hubs
Larger premises combining multiple clinical services, shared staff and varied access arrangements across the building.
APMS and salaried practices
Alternative provider or NHS-employed GP practices where documentation requirements align with trust or estate landlord rules.
