We take extra care to ensure your home, whether new construction or remodel, is spiffy clean at the end of the project. The point of this post isn’t to brag, it’s to inform that you should expect, even demand, extra attention and cleanliness from any contractor working on your house.
The technical term for limiting mess and damaging mishaps is “protection”, essentially covering things until you’re ready to use them. Any home improvement project typically involves some form of DEstruction (demolition or “demo”) before CONstruction improves the house. We believe strongly in taking extra time to protect the entire property inside and outside, including your lawn. For example, we use Ram Board with Spill Guard to cover flooring, thick plastic and paper for steps and other surfaces as well as silt fences, hay and plywood to control mud and prevent splatters on driveways, sidewalks, patios and walls. When we leave, ideally it’ll be as if a new home dropped from the sky.
Why bother? Because every project requires clean-up. Someone must clean. Make a big mess, cleaning takes even longer and often the homeowner inherits the chore after the trades bolt for the next job.
We feel that’s just plain wrong, wouldn’t do that to our mothers, so doesn’t meet our standard doing unto others what we’d do at our own home. Plus who wants to see their brand new stuff dinged, scuffed or scratched?
