Jobsite Safety and Maintenance

Keeping your jobsite organized and clean plays a huge role in jobsite safety. Your Builder should make a point to oversee that the following tasks are being completed, which are not only issues of tidiness but issues of safety as well;

• Tools and equipment should be organized and stored out of the way at the end of each day.
• Garbage, scrap materials and debris should be thrown into the onsite dumpster or designated area until it can be properly disposed of.
• Lumber and supplies should be stacked neatly and secured to protect them from blowing around if a storm occurs overnight or during the weekend.

Ask potential builders how they handle site maintenance—do they have a clear answer for you? A builder that cares will keep a clean and organized work site. An organized jobsite is a sign that your Builder is a respectful professional who cares about the safety of their team, trades and as well as the impression they leave with you.
