The Do's and Don'ts of Renovations: Good Neighbor Edition

Renovations in a residential neighborhood can be tricky. These projects can sometimes create noise and other forms of interruptions. In fact, when you take on renovations without considering your neighbors, it may even result in conflict.

One of the most trusted local roofers in the area, Empire Contractors LLC, shares a few do’s and don’ts when engaging in a renovation project without irking your neighbors.

DO: Let Them Know Ahead of Time

First, start by letting your neighbors know of your renovation plans. Share when the start and projected end dates are so they can prepare accordingly. Give them a chance to raise their concerns and take down notes, if any.

DON’T: Start Too Early

Keep to your schedule; if you’ve told them that the work will begin at 7 in the morning, for example, don’t start any earlier. They might still be sleeping then, and no one wants to wake up before they have to.

DO: Follow Homeowners’ Association Guidelines

Abide by the homeowners’ association regulations related to construction. Days before the renovation project, secure necessary documents (if any) to avoid conflict. This is another way to maintain a good relationship with your neighbors during maintenance. Be sure to also tell your residential roofing services provider all about these regulations.

DON’T: Be an Obstruction

Don’t block driveways and parking, which can be another source of inconvenience to your neighbors other than noise. Inform your contractor not to park their trucks and service vehicles in areas other than yours and to secure any available parking space beforehand.

DO: Clean Up

Make sure your contractors can clean up after themselves after each work day and ensure that supplies are properly stored.
