No, but you do have the option to be home if you wish. Usually, we do not need access to your home as long as there is access to your external water and power sources. We use power sources to charge some of our battery-operated tools and other power tools that are vital to completing your job. Sometimes a fuse can trip and we may need access to the fuse box to continue your project. Also, it can get very loud inside the home as we work with tools that cause noise that amplifies into your home. If you are planning on being home, please keep this in mind and maybe plan to leave the home but still be available for any questions or concerns we have for you.
