COVID-19 Update
We are open for business and ready to serve you. While it’s not business as usual we are taking every precaution and abiding by the Washington State’s guidelines that are being enforced to ensure the safety of you and your family, as well as our employees.
Below are more of the details you can expect to see on all job sites that fit within the requirements of the state. As guidelines change by the state we will update this page to be current and show our compliancy to operate during this pandemic.
Construction: Phase 3
In March, 2021, Governor Inslee announced Phase 3.
As we return to production work, we draw on our 15 years of experience in helping clients navigate the home remodeling process. As always, our first priority is the safety of our staff, clients, and the community at large. Here are the precautions we are taking, in accordance with state and local guidelines.
Safely re-entering homes
We are carefully following the governor's Phase 3 Plan to reduce the risk of exposure to COVID-19.
Weekly safety check in: We will be conducting mandatory weekly safety talks for employees to educate them about the new safety precautions. Talks will take place via telephone when possible.
Social distancing: All workers must maintain a distance of at least 6 feet between them. Staging areas will be created for the safe transfer of items between workers.
Attendance log: All workers and visitors entering the job site must sign in, and these logs will be kept by our lead carpenters/job site supervisors. No more than 10 workers on a job site at any time.
Safety and cleaning: We are providing hand washing stations with water, soap, and disposable towels. In addition, we are providing hand sanitizer.
PPE: In addition to regular equipment, such as hard hats, fall protection, and hearing protection, we are providing PPE, including gloves, safety glasses, and face masks.
One subcontractor at a time: Whenever practical, we are allowing only one trade or sub on the job site at a time, and all subs must maintain proper social distancing.
Screening workers: All workers will be screened at the beginning of their shift. We are taking temperatures and asking about symptoms (cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, fever, chills, muscle pain, headache, etc.). Symptomatic workers and subcontractors will be sent home immediately and cannot return to work until evaluated. Any worker with a COVID-19-positive family member must follow quarantine requirements established by the Department of Health.
No sharing: The sharing of tools, food, or rides is discouraged. Tools must be sanitized before being passed to another worker.
Jobsite sanitation: We are providing disinfectants and requiring our workers to sanitize the job site when they arrive, before they leave, and throughout the day. High-touch surfaces are being sanitized frequently. We are also providing tissues and trash cans. Trash will be emptied regularly.
Physical barrier: We are continuing to use plastic sheeting on our job sites to avoid any potential contamination of non-work areas.
Posting information: We are posting our mandatory COVID-19 safety protocols and safety plans at our job sites.
