remodel
Outside the area under construction, say in a doorway, contractors should place sticky mats that pull dust off shoes. Floor paper should line the walkway from the area under construction to the exit door, capturing additional dust. Also, make sure your crew is doing adequate cleanup at the end of the workday. Vacuums and sponge mops should be used to gather any dust that’s settled.
Contractors sometimes place a fan near a window to blow the air in a room under construction outside to create negative air pressure, so that when the plastic barrier is opened, the dusty air doesn’t rush into the rest of the home.
