Preparing Your Home Properly for a Window Replacement

Window replacement may seem daunting, but with the right considerations, you can make the experience relatively safe and stress-free. You should, for example, make sure your home is prepped and ready for the upcoming work. The trusted window and steel roofs company in the area, Oberg Roofing & Remodeling Inc. shares some handy tips.

Prevent Unnecessary Mess and Damage. 

First things first–talk to your choice of window contractor. Make sure you are both on the same page about keeping mess to a minimum during and after the window replacement job. You should also ask them about the measures they’ll take to protect your home and property from possible damage. After all, accidents are not exactly uncommon in home improvement projects, and you’ll want to avoid them as much as possible. Reliable window companies, like Oberg Roofing & Remodeling Inc., usually wear protective footwear and use drop cloths to avoid tracking dirt into your home.

Keep the Path Clear. 

You’ll want the area around your windows to be accessible, both inside and out. Your premier window and roof replacement contractor, Oberg Roofing & Remodeling Inc. suggest you clear the work area of plants, photos, window treatments and other knick-knacks. These items can hinder your window installer and should be moved elsewhere in the meantime. Larger items, such as furniture, that must remain in place should be covered to protect them from dust or debris. And if there are trees or shrubbery encroaching the window area from outside, you should cut them back accordingly. 

Consider Renting Storage Space.

If your home doesn’t have enough space to accommodate the items you need moved, you can try renting a portable storage bin. It comes in a variety of sizes, allowing you to store valuables and furniture until your window replacement is done. This allows you to keep all your things in a single place and protects them from any mishaps during the work.
