Letting your
kids run about in an active construction or remodeling site is quite dangerous
and would hardly be a “Baby’s Day Out” scenario! Very often homeowners would
rent a motel and stay there with their families until the remodeling work is
complete for the sake of safety of their kids! This ends up costing a lot and
these unnecessary expenses can be avoided if you follow these 5 tips to keep
your kids safe during a remodeling project!

It’s gonna get loud
Remodeling work
is often associated with the use of heavy machinery .It’s definitely going to
get loud around the house and it gets more difficult with babies around! So
here is what we at Daniel Mackey
do! We would install temporary soundproofing in your baby’s room which is much
more cost effective than renting a motel. This will definitely reduce the noise
entering your baby’s room and he/she can have a sound sleep. We also provide
mufflers for children who are over the
age of 5 to reduce the noise.
Strategize and execute
A good
remodeling project should always have a solid plan and execution. Plan your
remodel when your kids are off at school so that all the heavy work gets done
when they’re not around. When they’re back by noon or eve, you can shift to
other parts of the remodel that don’t involve much noise or the use of heavy
machinery.
Dust free remodel
Dust is a major
concern for all homeowners. At Daniel Mackey, we dust proof the remodeling area
and prevent any dust or fine particles from escaping the site. So as long as
you or your kids are not inside the remodeling area, you would not have to
worry about dust. But, if your kids are interested in knowing what’s going on
inside, we will provide them with dust proof masks so that they can watch and
maybe learn a few tricks of the trade!
A bad workman blames his tools
Being professional contractors,
we never leave our tools lying around during or after a day’s job. If you plan
on doing your remodel by yourself, you should be careful with your tools too!
Dangerous equipments like nail guns, saws etc. are quite risky when left
unattended. Make sure that the tools are kept out of children’s reach and are disconnected
from the electric sockets!

Let your kids have a go at it
They say
curiosity killed the cat! But in this case it’s better to satisfy the child’s
curiosity before the remodel starts! So, let them have a go at the tools under proper guidance so that they get
bored of it soon and allow the remodel to go on as planned!
So if you follow
these 5 tips, not only would you save a lot of cash by not renting a motel, you
would also get to monitor the remodeling work!
