Tips for Providing Home Improvement Estimates Safely During COVID-19

 

If you want to remodel your home or to make improvements in your rooms, the first thing that you need is an accurate cost estimate. As the process of getting that estimate involves inviting the contractor or contractors to your home, it obviously raises safety issues, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Fortunately, these issues can be efficiently prevented with some safety measures – here are some tips:

• Protective gear for everyone – wear a face mask and surgical gloves when you meet the contractor and ask the contractor to do the same;
• Use digital tools to walk your contractor around your home – try to conduct as much as possible of the preliminary communication with your contractor over emails, through phone calls or video calls. There are many great apps that you can use to show your home to the contractor without requiring personal meetings;
• Limit the time you spend with your contractor in the same room – show the contractor the room that needs improvement, then let the contractor check the room while you wait at a safe distance;
• Disinfect the space after the contractor leaves – use your disinfecting spray or liquid on every surface that your contractor has touched during the visit and open the doors and windows to let in fresh air. Continue to wear your mask and gloves while you are doing the disinfection.  Get a cost estimate from professionals at http://hankinshomescapes.com/.
