1

Noise! Noise! Noise!

There will be various levels of noise through the duration of your project. If you, other family members or even pets have a sensitivity to loud noises, we recommend spending some time away from your house while the job is in progress.

2

Protecting Unsecured Items

Vibrations from construction work may cause items to fall or slide off of shelves and walls (ex. mirrors, pictures, figurines or plates). We recommend that any valuable items be removed prior start date.
*The floor level directly below the roof is the most susceptible.

3

Protecting Landscape & Outdoor Furniture

We will notify you if the layout of the landscape or trees and shrubbery significantly obstructs our work. Please remove all items around the house at risk of being damaged by falling debris, such as: patio and pool furniture, potted plants, gardening equipment, and grills.
*Our crew will gladly assist if needed.

4

Attics and Garages

Please remove cars, motorcycles, bicycles, boats, and other storage items at risk of being dirtied or damaged. Debris can fall through spaces in the roof decking. AM Construction Co. is not responsible for the removal or cleaning of these items.

5

Gutter Damage

Precautions are taken to prevent damage to your existing gutters and downspouts. Your estimator will notify and provide options for you if damage is unavoidable or pre-existing.

6

Wood Replacement

Unfortunately, we are unable to accurately predict or estimate these variables perfectly. We will promptly communicate any changes in price or scope of work due to damaged/moldy wood.

7

Construction Zone

Please be aware when entering or existing construction zones, always keeping small children and pets away from the work area.

8

Clean-Up

We will perform daily clean-ups removing equipment and properly disposing of debris. A magnetic roller will be utilized to pick-up metal debris, but please be advised that a few nails, hidden in the grass or shrubbery, may possibly remain.

9

Rain Delays

Inclement weather may force delays in our production schedule. We require an adequate window of clear weather to work safely and efficiently.

10

Material Delivery

Distributions will be delivering your material with very large trucks that weigh in excess of 65,000 lbs. Normally, these trucks will be entering the driveway to properly unload the material. Please let us know of any specific concerns or instructions prior to start date.

11

Roofer Access

The roofing crew will need access to the following: Designated roof point of access, power supply (120v), driveways, side gates/yards, decks, garages and attics.

12

Satellite Dishes

The roofing crew may need to disconnect or move a satellite dish. We may not be able to get them back in the same exact location. Please contact your cable or satellite provider (two weeks prior to start date) to schedule service for realignment if necessary.

13

Electrical Mounts

Roofers are not electricians! Therefore, existing electrical mounts or electrical work may need to be addressed by a Certified Electrician for us to safely complete the roof work. Our estimator will notify you of any necessary electrical work. For example: If a new power fan is being installed, electric must be connected for it to work.
