Preparing your home before a roof replacement helps the job go faster, safer, and with less mess. Clear your driveway and yard for crew access, protect fragile items inside from vibration, and keep children and pets away from the work zone throughout the day. A little preparation on your end makes a big difference in how smoothly everything runs. ## Step-by-Step Home Prep Checklist ### Outside the Home - **Clear the driveway:** Roofing crews need space for equipment, material deliveries, and dumpsters for old roofing material. Move vehicles the night before. - **Trim back landscaping:** Move potted plants and patio furniture away from the house perimeter. Crews work along the roofline, and falling debris can cause damage. - **Mark or protect sprinkler heads:** Let your contractor know where irrigation lines run so nothing gets accidentally damaged. ### Inside the Home - **Remove wall décor:** Hammering and tear-off vibrations travel through the structure. Take down framed pictures, mirrors, and mounted shelves throughout the house. - **Cover attic belongings:** Dust and small debris can filter through during the tear-off phase. Drape old sheets or tarps over stored items in your attic. - **Protect fragile surfaces:** If you have a chandelier or delicate light fixtures, the vibration can loosen connections. A quick check before work starts is smart. ### Family and Pets Plan for noise — roof replacements are loud. Arrange for pets to stay elsewhere or secure them in an interior room away from exterior doors. For households with young children, consider spending the day off-site if possible for comfort and safety. ### Communication with Your Contractor Talk to your roofing team the day before about start time, where materials will be staged, and how debris removal will work. Knowing the game plan reduces surprises and keeps the project on track.
