Clearing The Perimeter Zone
Move your vehicles out. Old nails and heavy tile debris regularly bounce beyond drop tarps when tradespeople strip away cracked decking, so park trucks out on the pavement. Potted ferns, patio tables, and ceramic planters sitting right against stucco walls should also migrate safely inside the garage before morning comes. We drop heavy plywood sheets across air conditioning compressors to prevent falling timber from denting fragile aluminum cooling fins. Roof repair in Largo requires free access around every exterior wall.
Protecting Attic Spaces Below Decking
Vibrations travel straight down. When hammers hit structural rafters or crew members drive mechanical fasteners into brittle rafters, fine black dust, wood chips, and dried insulation fibers fall freely between your ceiling joists. Throw thin painter plastic across stacked cardboard boxes, seasonal clothes, and exposed electronics tucked away directly under rafters. Take hanging oil paintings, antique wall mirrors, and loose china off upper hallway walls so repeated hammer blows cannot shake them loose from drywall anchors. Small vibrations knock unsecured porcelain right off corner shelves.
