It’s standard practice for roofers to take the necessary precautions to protect your garden and exterior while installing your new roof. However, if you want extra peace of mind, there are a few things you can do to protect your garden and exterior.
Northwest Construction, your trusted roofing installation and bathroom remodeling contractor, lists them below:
In addition to clearing your driveway to free up space for your contractor’s equipment, you should lay plywood on top of your driveway to protect it from scrapes.
To protect delicate shrubs and flowerbeds from falling debris, you should cover them with a tarp.
The orange tape indicates to your roofer that they need to be careful when working near delicate plants and trees and that they need to keep an eye out for sprinklers they may trip over.
Inform your contractor about potentially problematic areas, like a hot tub or a mini-playground. That way, they can put in place additional precautions to protect your siding and other parts of your exterior.
In general, you shouldn’t worry too much about your garden if you made sure to vet your contractor before hiring them. That’s because it’s standard practice for professional contractors to take all the necessary precautions to protect your garden and exterior.
