Steps to prepare for installation
During the installation
You'll need to be present during the installation to answer any questions and to guide the installation crew. Because no job is the same regarding complexity and length, it is not always possible for the team to give you an exact arrival time; however, we will update you along the way.
Your installers will use a variety of tools and techniques that can make the work area hazardous. Please make sure that your children and pets are kept out of the work area on installation day.
After the installation
Once the installation is finished, do a complete walk-through with the installation crew. This allows you to see the finished result and ask any additional questions at this time.
If you are sensitive to dust and odors, it's a good idea to establish good ventilation for up to 72 hours after the job is complete.
