Dust, Noise and Access
Plastic barriers, floor protection and air filters keep dust in the work area. Plan quiet spaces for calls and sleep.
Agree on working hours, parking and how crews enter the house.
Kitchens, Baths and Routines
Set up a temporary kitchen with a microwave, a small fridge and a washing station. Keep one bathroom usable where possible.
Plan simple meals during the messiest weeks.
Pets, Kids and Communication
Keep pets and children out of work areas. Share a plan for gates and doors.
A quick daily check-in with the lead keeps surprises small.
