3 Covid Precautions to Take When Hiring A Contractor

 

Some home repair or renovation projects can be accomplished by DIYers, there are some that can wait and there are some that are urgent and require a professional to accomplish. While many people don’t feel confident letting a contractor into their home for fear of contracting the novel coronavirus, with certain precautions, you can safely hire a contractor to perform the repairs or upgrades that you need such as a Lansing window replacement project. Here are the three most important safety and protection measures:

• Stick to exterior work if possible – repair jobs done on your home’s interior are quite safe, so you don’t need to worry if you need to engage into that kind of project. However, if the people working on your project need to enter your home to use the kitchen or the bathroom, maintain the required physical distance from them, then disinfect the surfaces they have touched and open the windows to air the room after they have left;
• Limit contact with repair workers during work performed inside – if interior repair is inevitable, wear a mask and maintain proper distance while you show the repair technicians to the job site, then disinfect all the surfaces on the job site after the repair team leaves and open all the doors and windows, too;
• Disinfect your hands – wash and disinfect your hands after your repair team has left.
