Brock Ridge, Duffin Heights, Seaton and the hamlets of Claremont, Whitevale,
Greenwood and Brougham; Ajax, including Pickering Village, downtown Ajax, the
Harwood Avenue and Westney Road corridors, Audley and the Ajax waterfront.

Coverage is kept to these two municipalities so an overnight window can be held

corridor; hotel, casino and banquet kitchens; hospital, long-term-care and
retirement-residence kitchens; school, college and campus kitchens; golf clubs,
arenas, racetrack and community kitchens; caterers and food-service operators

## Explicitly out of scope

Building-wide HVAC and residential air duct cleaning, coil cleaning, dryer vent
cleaning, commercial sanitation contracts, roofing repairs, gas fitting,
electrical work, fire suppression system servicing, structural ductwork
replacement, and grease interceptor pumping. Where one of these is the real
answer it is reported and handed on, not attempted.
