How to Choose Your Plumber During the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has turned the world on its head. In addition to the dangers of the virus itself, people are having difficulty accessing everyday services. Anything classified non-essential has been asked to close, leaving people unsure of which services are available and which are not. The good news is that New Generation Plumbing is considered an essential service and is still open, offering our services during these trying times. Choosing a plumber during COVID-19 can be tricky though.

Just because a service is available does not always mean it is a good idea to use it. At New Generation Plumbing, we are going above and beyond to ensure that we take every precaution possible to ensure the safety of our clients. We understand that we must all work together if we want to overcome this pandemic. That means we are prepared to do our part while still providing the Los Angeles Area with plumbing services they can trust.

Importance of Plumbing During the Pandemic

Plumbing problems don’t wait for anyone. If a pipe is going to burst, it will regardless of what else is going on in the world. Now it is more important than ever to ensure that your home is safe and leak-free.

But another reason plumbing is so important is because the Building Safety Journal found that modern plumbing works to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

While we are in self-isolation, plumbing concerns will become more apparent than ever. Maybe you ignored a drip in the bathroom, but now it bugs you all day. Or, maybe your sink has clogged, and the dirty dishes are stacking up. In any case, proper plumbing is tied to proper sanitation, and we are here to help.

Choosing a Plumber During COVID-19

If you are having issues with your plumbing, it is essential not just to have any plumbing company come over to deal with it. Any human contact can contribute to the spread of the coronavirus.

That is why you must choose a plumbing company that safeguards the health of both the plumber and the customer. Other companies might prioritize only staying afloat during this time, but New Generation plumbing is committed first to the safety and well-being of our clients and workers alike.

Personal Protective Equipment Is a Must

PPE, or personal protective equipment, is critical to slowing the spread of germs and contaminants. Currently, the world is experiencing a shortage of PPE across all spheres. Some plumbing companies might try to stay in operation without using proper PPE, but that is not the case with New Generation Plumbing.

We make sure our plumbers are absolutely protected when they are on the job. We have equipped our team with the whole range of protective equipment, sparing no expense to do our part in ending this pandemic.

For every job, our plumbers are equipped with fresh masks and gloves to prevent spreading and picking up the virus. Additionally, we use disinfectants as recommended by the CDC on all our equipment, both before and after a job. Also, we’ve taken the CDC’s guidelines for home disinfection and applied them to our workplace.

Social Distancing

Following the World Health Organization’s guidelines, our team practices proper social distancing. While this might make our service trips seem less personal, they are, in fact, for the benefit of everyone involved.

While working on your plumbing issues, our team maintains the recommended two yards of distance.

Post-Service Sanitization

After completing a service, our team is sure to leave the area sanitized. We understand that no precaution should be overlooked. Plumbing services can deal with areas of the house that might typically be missed during routine cleaning.

Our team is aware of this. They are sure to sanitize any work areas both before and after completing their job.

Don’t Let Your Plumbing Concerns Wait

Plumbing is considered an essential service for a reason. Putting off plumbing repairs can be a risk to yourself and others.
