Doing repairs on a property during COVID

I'm managing my parents' condo right now, which is a new construction building in Gaithersburg, MD. Since it's new construction, we still have access to a warranty from the builders that expires in a month. They have been having some issues with the lights, and I was able to get the builders to agree to send an electrician to replace the lights and install new switches. However, my tenant in the property is refusing to allow anyone into their unit because of the COVID risk - but if I wait, our warranty will expire. I even offered to have them be away from the unit for an hour so that I can let the electrician in and they won't be exposed, however they're worried about droplets that may remain in the air. 

I want to be sensitive to their concerns, as my family is also concerned about COVID. Has anyone had to deal with something like this? How would you guys handle this situation?
