When it comes time for a homeowner to have a Roof Installation carried out, it is crucial they are properly prepared, so the process is much easier for them to go through. There are several steps a homeowner will need to take to make sure their home is prepared so the contractors can come out and take care of all of the aspects of the installation of the roof. With this information, homeowners can be fully prepared.

     *     It is important homeowners remove any pictures hanging on their walls. It is also important to remove breakable items from any shelves. The vibration of hammers and other tools can knock these items from the walls and cause them to become damaged. Protecting pictures and breakables are especially important on the upper levels of the home where the most vibrations will occur.

     *     A Roof Installation causes a lot of noise that can last for one to three days. Homeowners need to prepare to either be away from their home or protect their ears from the loud noise. Many people make the decision to stay in a hotel until their roofing work is complete.

     *     It behooves a homeowner to inform their surrounding neighbors they will be having roof work carried out. It is polite to give a week’s notice so the neighbors can prepare for the onslaught of noise that will occur.

     *     Homeowners need to make sure they remove all lawn ornaments, cars, lawnmowers, and plants from their yard. Falling debris can damage these items. Removing these items will allow for falling debris without causing major damages.

     *     Children and pets should not be allowed in the yard until all of the roofing work has been carried out. Nails and other debris can cause serious injuries. The crew will use special tools to make sure all of the debris is removed once the work is complete.
