Dr. Fixit’s Supports Contractors during Pre-Monsoon Time amid COVID-

As the lockdown enforced to combat the COVID-19 pandemic eases, monsoon is set to enter the country. The waterproofing contractors play a crucial role in ensuring the structural integrity of buildings and depend upon the pre-monsoon work for a big part of their earnings. However, consumers have heightened health & safety concerns this year and may be wary of workers entering their homes. Keeping this in mind, Dr. Fixit, the construction and waterproofing expert has rolled out a program across 10 cities - Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Indore, Ahmedabad, Surat, Kolkata and Nagpur to addresses two objectives. Contractor/User safety training: The first is to train and certify contractors on all safety aspects they and their workers need to adopt to prevent contracting and spreading of COVID-19 while conducting site operations. The certification training, conducted over video conferencing, has been helping contractors allay fears of potential customers and prospect for fresh work with them to undertake waterproofing jobs. For effective job completion: The second objective is provide technical training to contractors /users on advanced waterproofing techniques so that they can be equipped to complete all jobs faster, with fewer workers, and as per stringent quality standards. Dr Fixit teams have been providing technical training on advanced waterproofing techniques, including the use of mechanized tools and devices that would help them speedily complete and deliver their jobs to the best quality. It has partnered with multiple companies that manufactures these mechanization equipment and has been training its users on these machines.
