Prepare Clients for Construction
Start by setting a target date for construction, then give the homeowners clear instructions on how to prepare for their remodel. “Depending on the project, a homeowner may need to remove all items from kitchen or bathroom cabinets, or any other furniture that we’ll need to move to lay floor tile, for instance,” Palacio says.
It may be helpful to have a pre-construction meeting with the client, during which you discuss safety concerns, noise tolerance and limited access to living space. “We talk about where they are going to live and work during our planning process, and about how they will prepare to pack and move their belongings,” Bettinger says. Her team also sends clients a document with more details on how to prepare for construction.
