Oakey & Son Ltd Electrical Services

Good Afternoon,
You may have read or heard in the media that power network providers are stopping all non -essential maintenance to the National Grid as engineers become ill and self isolate. Less staff may mean faults and power outages on the grid may take longer to fix. It’s worth taking a few minutes now to prepare for any (God forbid!) power cuts. The power networks have written to vulnerable customers and advised them to take the following precautions to prepare for a p...ower cut:
• Make sure you have torch(es) handy with charged up batteries. • Make sure you have warm clothing available as your gas and electric heating will be affected in a power cut. • In the event of a power cut keep medicines and food as cool as possible. Try not to open fridges and freezers unnecessarily. • Trap heat by drawing curtains and closing doors • Keep your mobile phone and any laptops/tablets charged. You may need these to call for help or get an update. If you have a power bank keep that charged too.
If you are unlucky enough to have a power cut then you can call 105 to get an update on when power is likely to be restored.
I hope you find this useful.

Electrical Safety Tip: Electricity is part of our lives. We use it from the moment we wake and throughout the day. As a result we sometimes forget how powerful and dangerous it can be.

Who to call in an emergency. Or call us we are still available over the phone and will help if we can. 01594 723062.
Please share and take care all.

It's International Happiness Day today! The irony at this unprecedented time!
I am happy to still be able to support those customers that need our services and will continue to do so under government advice (which we will continually monitor)
Taking all the necessary precautionary measures of cleanliness, I would ask for the protection of my more at-risk emergency customers, that if you are unwell you let us know and we can reschedule.
... I would also ask that where possible when I am on a job you adhere to social distancing and when working inside, perhaps keep persons in the house to another room.
Thank you for your continual support and please do continue to stay safe.

Update ***
As you cannot now ignore, organisations are implementing strategies to delay and prevent the spread of the Coronavirus. I can assure you at this time that as a business we are being extra vigilant for the safety of ourselves and our customers.
We have ensured that we follow all health advice and the necessary precautions of handwashing, alcohol hand sanitiser between clients and also cleaning tools. If you are self-isolating or have come into contact with anyone ...with cold/flu-like symptoms then please do reschedule.
I will be working as normal and following the Public health advice, but will, of course, monitor the situation regularly.
For the safety of all of my elderly clients and the necessity of some of my work, it is vital that I adhere to the standards above and appreciate your support with this.
Keep safe and well
