How Messy Is a Whole-House Remodel? | Caliber Construction™
Remodeling Without the Chaos
There’s no getting around it — remodeling creates dust, debris, and noise. But with the right systems in place, the mess stays contained, your finishes stay protected, and your home stays safe.
At Caliber Construction™, we treat every home like it’s our own. Our crews follow strict protection and cleanup protocols so that even during major construction, your space stays as clean and controlled as possible.
Surface Protection Starts Before Day One
Before we begin demolition or construction, your home is prepped and protected from floor to ceiling. We use:
- Ram Board to protect hardwood, tile, and other flooring from damage and debris.
- Plywood casing around bathtubs, stair edges, countertops, and trim to prevent dents or chips.
- Construction paper and blue tape for quick, secondary protection during phases of finishing work.
- Plastic sheeting and zipper walls to seal off work zones from the rest of your home.
- Dust partitions and temporary barriers to prevent dirt and particles from spreading through hallways and HVAC systems.
-
We don’t start swinging hammers until everything that needs protecting is covered and sealed.
Dust Control and Air Quality Protection
Dust control is one of the most overlooked parts of remodeling — but not by us.
We use professional-grade dust extractors, HEPA-filtered air scrubbers, and dust collectors on-site to capture particles while we work.
These systems constantly filter the air, keeping the environment safe for both your family and our crew. It’s part of our standard process, not an upgrade or an afterthought.
Daily Cleanup and Organization
A clean job site is a productive job site. Each day ends with:
- Full debris removal and sweeping/vacuuming.
- Re-sealing dust barriers and partitions.
- Wiping down protected surfaces and walkways.
- Ensuring clear and safe access to all non-construction areas.
We take pride in how our projects look at every stage — not just when they’re finished.
Why This Level of Protection Matters
A remodel shouldn’t feel like chaos. The difference between a professional job and an amateur one is how your home is treated during the process. Proper protection prevents costly damage, keeps your timeline on track, and makes the entire experience smoother for everyone involved.
When you hire Caliber Construction™, you’re not just hiring builders — you’re hiring a team that respects your space and your investment.
My Professional Advice
Always ask your contractor what protection measures they use. If they can’t answer with specifics like Ram Board, zipper walls, and dust extractors — that’s a red flag.
Protecting your home is part of the craft. We’ve built our reputation on doing things the right way from start to finish.
