Building Rules and Regulations for your home construction project.

I've just published my first Article for the year.  The topic I'm addressing this quarter is rules and regulations for a construction project.  I hope you find this helpful.  Here is an excerpt from the article check out my website to read the full text.


There are multiple level of clean-up required during a construction project. Each phase of construction should have clear rules about what you expect.

While construction is ongoing establish expectations to keep the floor free and clear of tools, screws, nails, or other tripping hazards.  Construction debris will be piled neatly until it is ready to be removed from the premises.  Appurtenances that are suspended above the work area will be safed and secured at all times.  Exposed wiring and plumbing lines to remain will be deactivated and safely secured in place.

Rules for daily end-of-day cleanup are also important.  The area of work will be broom swept daily.  No construction debris will be allowed to remain in the area of work overnight.  Tools will be collected and stored in a secure tool chest or carried off the job site daily.  Construction materials will be stored neatly in designated areas.  All electrical equipment will be unplugged from it's power source and stored in a secure designated location.


Check back next week when I return with my weekly blog.
