Bill & Dave Computer Repair – COVID-19 Response

To our Friends, Clients, Associates and Partners:

We are watching closely as the global situation with COVID-19 continues to evolve. We would like our clients, partners, associates and our community to know what we are doing to manage and combat this or any other infection or virus.

You can find the live numbers of infections, deaths and recoveries around the world here:

Additional Resources:

Province of Ontario – COVID-19
Ottawa Public Health – COVID-19
World Health Organization – COVID-19

The health and safety of our Customers, Team, and Network of Partners continues to be our highest priority.

We have always followed proper sanitary measures, however, over the recent weeks we have adopted the following protocols that help in the support of everyone’s health and wellbeing:

  • Reinforcing standards for health and safety as well as personal hygiene.
  • Working closely within our network to ensure frequent hand washing, using hand sanitizers/disinfectants regularly as well as sanitizing packages and contents when they arrive to our facility.
  • Continual sanitation of all high touch surfaces in our location including door handles, countertops, seats, benches, touchscreens, payment terminals, keyboards and mice before/after every new person’s use.
  • Sanitation of incoming devices, as well as completed repairs prior to being prepared for the client to pick them up.
  • Advanced screening of potential onsite appointments for the safety of our technicians as well as sanitation precautions before using equipment at these locations for mutual protection. 

We also ask that you not come to our location if you:

  • Are experiencing any of the following symptoms (mild or severe):
    • Fever
    • Cough
    • Difficulty breathing/shortness of breath
  • Have traveled to any area with an ongoing spread of COVID-19
  • Live with someone who recently traveled to an area with an ongoing spread of COVID-19
  • Have been in contact with someone known to have COVID-19 or experiencing symptoms similar to the Flu or COVID-19

While these measures help to ensure a sanitary environment and help to prevent a spread of infections, we may decided to take additional measures whilst this situation develops. These additional measures may include and are not limited to:

  • Limiting onsite services in homes. For now, we ask that all clients be open with us when we ask questions. Even if there is someone sick in the household, we can still indeed find a way to help!
  • Requesting onsite residential customers to allow a temperature check by our technicians before entering their premises.
  • Closing our doors to the public if public spread comes to an increased risk as Rideau Street is very busy and we get a lot of walk in traffic.
  • Limiting levels of service we offer in hospitals, schools and medical facilities unless absolutely necessary. If deemed necessary, the utmost of caution will be maintained in each and every case at all times. 
  • Closing all levels of services except remote service entirely. 

Due to the large lists of closures and cancellations already occurring in our city and the growing risk of local transmission along with numerous confirmed cases of COVID-19 already in Ottawa, all further actions will be taken without prior notice. We feel it is necessary to take additional action on our own, before things get worse and put more people at risk. More details will be made available over the next few days on our process and any changes in it along with how you, your friends, family and colleges may still utilize our broad range of services throughout this hard time.

As always, we invite anyone to call, text or email us during business hours and someone will be available to take your call or reply to your email or message inquiries. We will be utilizing technology and remote services for diagnostics as well as supporting people remotely whenever possible. Pickup and delivery of devices needing services can be facilitated. When onsite service or in person contact is needed, the utmost of caution will be maintained in each and every single case.

We are taking these steps to help assist in public safety and to slow the progression of this new virus within our community. Please see our website and further notifications here for updates on our plan to continue doing business as this evolves. Anyone that would like more information sooner can feel free to call or email us requesting this and you will be provided with the information we have to date.

Ottawa, we would like to thank you once again for your continued support, patience and trust!

We are wishing everyone the very best and to stay safe throughout these times as Canada comes together to battle this threat. Thank you for your understanding and willingness to adapt so we can continue to be available as Ottawa needs our technology support and device repairs.

Sincerely,
– Bill & Dave Computer Repair Inc.
