What is done to protect my home from dust and debris that results from construction?
Any time walls or floors are disturbed, dust will result. But certain procedures are followed to limit this as much as possible. Where appropriate, plastic sheets are hung to block the kitchen off from the rest of the house. But some dust will always drift out of work areas and you should take measures to protect your property. Electronic equipment, fine furniture, or other valuables should be covered or removed. Because adjoining walls may be disturbed during the construction process, be sure to remove pictures and valuables along these walls. Also, cover your fish tank and keep expensive telephones and electronic equipment out of the remodeling area.
