Keep a list of
procedures.
Bridgegate Construction will
explain and give you a
written copy of what work will be done and when so you'll know the time
needed for what's involved.
-
Plan adequate storage
space. Make room for materials, tools, and equipment by
clearing the remodeling area of unnecessary furniture and fixtures. Take
them to a room which is not a part of the remodeling project or in some
cases you may have to find a storage facility for the time required.
-
Post our phone number
by your telephone in case a question arises during construction.
-
Consider the logistics
involved in delivering, shipping, and ordering materials and Bridgegate
Construction making the best use of the tradesperson's time and skill.
We are
as anxious as you are to finish the job.
-
Check locks and keys.
You probably will need to share keys with us if no one is home at all
times.
-
Try to stay out of the
construction area. This is important for safety and for maintaining
construction schedules. Keep pets, toys, and children out of the workers'
way during construction will make the process much smoother..
-
Expect the unexpected.
No one can prepare you for all the unforeseen incidents that may
transpire. Tearing down a wall may uncover a problem that demands plan
revisions.
-
Workmanship.
Expect the highest of industry standards of quality workmanship.
-
Batten down your
belongings. Cover furniture and carpeting in other parts of the house. Use this
time to have your draperies and upholstery cleaned. You won't believe the
dirt and dust remodeling creates.
-
Plan ahead
to do without water or power when workers shut off lines. That way you'll
avoid food spoilage in your refrigerator because of an unexpected power
shut-off. Be sure to shut off HVAC during the sheetrock stage.
