For your safety, please do not move any tools or equipment without speaking with your project manager first. If at all possible, please plan on leaving the premises during noisy times when equipment and tools are in use; we do our best to keep this to communicate this and keep it to a minimum. We suggest moving, packing in boxes, or otherwise protect items such as electronics, art, plants, pet enclosures, and other hard to clean items as dust will settle even where construction is not taking place. If possible, heat/cool the house without your furnace or air conditioner. By completely blocking the warm-air and cold-air returns in the construction area, you will avoid pulling dust from that section of the house. Be sure to consult an HVAC company before blocking ducts to avoid any damage to your furnace. Making timely decisions on reconstruction materials (paint colors, carpet, tile, cabinets, etc. ) will aid greatly in managing the timeline of your project. Once your project is agreed upon, it is important to be committed to the plan or be prepared for delays and updated pricing. It is important that you speak with your insurance company to discuss whether or not your policy allows for coverage or reimbursement for added energy use. Please be patient; we will do our best to keep you apprised of the timeline and progress, there are a lot of moving parts and the timeline may change. We do our best to anticipate everything on your project and to stay within your budget and your time frame, but again we ask for patience during the process. Communication between all parties is key.  Speaking directly with the source to relay concerns as clearly and quickly as possible will help us better serve you.
