Not for every case. A small home cleaned after a mild illness can often be handled with gloves and a registered disinfectant. Businesses, shared housing and larger spaces often use professional COVID cleaning for thoroughness and documentation.
Hand sanitizer is meant for skin, not for disinfecting surfaces. It may evaporate before the needed contact time and can damage some finishes. Use an EPA-registered surface disinfectant for counters, door handles and furniture.
Some insurers and landlords ask for written proof of cleaning. Ask the cleanup team what notes it can provide, and whether it bills the insurer directly.
