Mess, or not?
















The neighbors have been dropping by and commenting on the clean site, despite the large scope of the construction project. Yesterday the site had a hit of piles. Mess, or not? A huge dumpster arrived to hold the old roofing material; a giant pile of insulation was delivered; and another pile of 2x6's arrived. But, the neighbors are still right, although it might not, at first glance, look like a clean site. The piles are all building materials waiting to be used or waste tightly contained. On close examination it is clear that the site is still clean -- no empty cans or candy wrappers blowing here and there and no stray pieces of old roofing or boards with nails carelessly thrown about. Keeping a clean site makes working conditions more pleasant; the owner's remodeling life more manageable; and the neighborhood more content. It's a goal to strive for even throughout the most complex construction project.
