Being a Considerate Neighbor During a Home Improvement

Any home improvement project, especially when it’s related to the house exterior, can be stressful and disruptive. You, however, wouldn’t be the only affected party. Your next-door neighbors would also have to contend with the hassles of your renovation.
Being A Considerate Neighbor During A Home Improvement
If you’re planning to tackle a window replacement or a siding repair, Twin Cities Siding and Roofing explains how you can be considerate of your neighbors:
Get the Word Out in Advance
Inform your neighbors about your home project beforehand. Since there’s probably no way to avoid disturbing them during construction, let them know about inconveniences they might temporarily encouner. Tell your neighbors about the scope of your project and its timetable to set their expectations.
Avoid Offbeat Home Exterior Colors
As a homeowner, you’re free to beautify your home exterior your way. It’s unwise, however, to deliberately make siding changes that disobey neighborhood design conventions. If the color palette of your house exterior noticeably departs from that of other properties, the property values across your block could drop.
Don’t Start Too Early or Finish Too Late
It’s imperative to time the construction when it can disturb as few individuals as possible. A good rule of thumb is to commence when most people are up and to postpone it when most people are about to rest.
Keep the Construction on Schedule
Do everything to prevent your project from lasting longer than it should. Sticking to the original plan, preparing a contingency budget and hiring a qualified crew are some of the ways to avoid construction holdups.
When buying Boulder Creek® Stone or James Hardie® siding, choose Twin Cities Siding and Roofing. Our company has advanced credentials to install these products with excellence.
Extend an Olive Branch
Regardless of whether your neighbors were OK with your construction or not, give them some peace offering afterward. Inviting them to dinner or delighting them with a basket of baked goodies is a simple gesture of gratitude for them putting up with your project.
