Are you planning a window replacement project soon? Every home improvement project requires preparation, especially on the part of the homeowner. And preparation starts with learning.
Here are the things you should expect during a window replacement project.
1. Schedules
Of course, in order to make a plan, you need to fix the schedule first. To do so, you have to sit down with the contractors and talk about your routine, anticipate the event that could come up around the area, and come around a concrete arrangement. On average, the actual replacement will only take 2-3 days, which will still depend on how things play out.
2. Preparation
You have to determine or ask where the materials will be placed when the installation begins. It’s a good idea to put your pets in the cage during the course of the replacement process. Remove objects that can get in the way of the crews such as plants, figurines and other decorations.
3. Procedure
You can make the process smoother by following a procedure. If your house has security features, you can turn them off during work hours. Decide how you will communicate with the team, or who you should talk to. For commercial buildings, you can determine who are the ones who can have access to some door to enforce privacy.
4. Permits
When dealing with exterior home improvement projects, always check for local codes and permits, especially if the project will cause a disturbance to the neighborhood. Some areas may also mandate impact-resistant windows due to the frequency of storms. Ask you contractor if they already know about these requirements.
