Compliance & Safety

Bio-Shield operates as a specialist cleaning and remediation contractor, delivering services in environments that present health, safety, and contamination risks. All works are carried out using controlled methods, trained operatives, and compliant procedures to ensure safety for occupants, clients, and our technicians.

We work to recognised UK standards and best practice when delivering biohazard cleaning, pest contamination remediation, extreme property cleaning, and disinfection services.


Health & Safety Management

Bio-Shield follows structured health and safety procedures appropriate for high-risk and non-routine cleaning environments.

Before work begins, we assess each site to identify hazards and determine safe working methods. This may include:

  • Risk assessments

  • Method statements

  • Identification of biological, chemical, and physical hazards

  • Access and occupancy considerations

Control measures are implemented before and during works to minimise risk.


COSHH & Chemical Safety

Where cleaning agents or biocides are required, all products are used in line with COSHH regulations.

This includes:

  • Selection of appropriate approved products

  • Safe storage and handling

  • Controlled application methods

  • Use of correct PPE

  • Clear post-treatment advice where required

Only professional-grade products are used — never domestic or inappropriate chemicals.


Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Our operatives use suitable PPE based on the level of risk present at each site. This may include:

  • Protective clothing

  • Gloves

  • Respiratory protection

  • Eye and face protection

PPE is selected to ensure effective protection while allowing work to be carried out safely and efficiently.


Waste Handling & Disposal

Bio-Shield handles contaminated waste in line with current waste management regulations.

Where required:

  • Hazardous and controlled waste is segregated

  • Waste is removed from site safely

  • Disposal is carried out via licensed waste carriers and facilities

  • Waste transfer documentation can be provided

This ensures contaminated materials are removed legally and responsibly.


Training & Competence

Bio-Shield operatives are trained to work in high-risk and contaminated environments. Training and experience are appropriate to the services delivered and the hazards involved.

This ensures work is carried out safely, efficiently, and in line with industry best practice.


Documentation & Reporting

Where required, Bio-Shield can provide supporting documentation on completion of works, including:

  • Confirmation of services carried out

  • Waste documentation

  • Treatment or disinfection records

This is particularly important for landlords, letting agents, local authorities, and commercial clients.


Regional Coverage

All services are delivered in line with these compliance and safety standards across Northern England and southern Scotland, including Newcastle upon Tyne, Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield, York, Middlesbrough, Durham, Sunderland, Bradford, and Glasgow.
