Remodel During COVID-19?

Our Own Take

Gordon Reese Design Build is staying up to date on the pandemic, and has put company measures in place to keep both clients and employees safe. This means there are stringent rules that our team must follow as they work on your home.

Virtual Design Sessions

One of the first things that Gordon Reese Design Build did during the onset of COVID was pivot to virtual design sessions. With this modern option, it’s easy and convenient for you to schedule an appointment with us. We’ll jump on a twenty-minute Zoom call to talk about your goals, vision and ideal remodeling project. So much can be done online now. We can discuss your expectations and requirements, as well as costs and other important details of your remodeling project.

On-Site Safety Protocols

Gordon Reese Design Build employees are held to the same strict standards that have been mandated for other essential workers during the pandemic. For instance, all of our remodelers must wash their hands for at least twenty seconds, and refrain from touching their eyes, nose or mouth. Tools and equipment aren’t shared without proper sanitation. Similarly, the team can’t congregate in large crowds in the lunch area.

Each remodeler wears personal protection equipment (PPE), uses hand sanitizer (if soap is not available), and makes sure that PPE is disposed of properly after use. We also make sure that we disinfect reusable safety equipment. In some work areas, we use HEPA air filtering systems to block out air contaminants and pollutants. And, of course, we follow all of these protocols during every client visit at the worksite, maintaining social distancing standards.
