The recent rainy weather in Winnipeg has led to a busy spring for plumbing and roofing contractors in the area. With double the amount of precipitation in May compared to the typical month, businesses like Lynn’s Plumbing, Heating and Cooling and Transcona Roofing have been working around the clock to address emergencies and leaks caused by the heavy rain. This unique spring weather pattern, combined with upcoming air conditioning season, has resulted in a high volume of calls and appointments for these companies. They are working diligently to address their backlog and ensure quick service for their customers.
At Lynn’s Plumbing, Heating and Cooling, they are anticipating a surge in calls once the temperatures rise above 25 degrees. Their team is prepared to work long hours to address the increased demand for cooling system repairs and installations. Similarly, Transcona Roofing is receiving 50 to 70 calls a day from new customers about leaks, causing delays in their projects. The unpredictable weather in Winnipeg, including fluctuating temperatures and new construction, has kept both companies busy with repairs, maintenance, and installations.
Despite the high demand for their services, both companies do not anticipate any supply chain issues this year. They have fully stocked up on materials and equipment to handle any repairs or installations promptly. This preparation ensures that homeowners looking to start projects or address issues with their plumbing, cooling, or roofing can expect efficient service without any delays due to supply chain issues. Transcona Roofing is also being proactive by ordering products well in advance to ensure they have everything they need for upcoming projects.
To cope with the rainy days when it’s not safe for staff to work on roofs, Transcona Roofing is finding tasks that can be done indoors or during light rain. By keeping employees engaged and productive during inclement weather, they are ensuring that the projects stay on track. Both companies mentioned in the article prioritize the well-being and satisfaction of their employees, ensuring they have the hours they need to survive and thrive. This approach not only benefits their workers but also contributes to the overall success of the business and the quality of service provided to customers.
