- We will remove and re-install electrical cover and switch plates, vent covers, and air return covers at no additional cost. Please don't do this yourself; we don't want you, or any children or pets in your home getting injured when removing an electrical cover plate.

- Where possible, we will seal off any doorways with poly film and masking tape to protect any areas of your home not being painted from dust or over-spray.

- If a client elects to use their own paint brand (any brand other than Green Friendly Paint by DuROCK) we will pick up and deliver the paint at no charge. The client may pay for the paint in advance, or, we will pay for it, and charge the paint to the customer as a "pass-through."

- We will cover any furnishings of belongings stacked into one place in the centre of the room with poly. This does not include sealing with tape.

- We will use drop cloths, and/or poly sheets, and/or painter's disposable paper, and/or light tack plastic floor protector sheets to cover your floor in areas where we paint.

Things you can do before we arrive to help us:

- Please clear an area, convenient to the area to be painted, but preferably secure from pets and children, which we can use as a temporary "work area / mixing area." Ideally, this space will have an impervious floor surface; tile, linoleum, concrete... etc... Spaces to consider would be laundry rooms, walk-in pantries, temperature-controlled sunrooms, basements, attached garage, or the like. If no such spaces are available, then a corner which is out of the way will suffice. Please take precautions to ensure that no children or pets can access our painting materials; we assume no liability.

- Please ensure we have a water source and drain for clean-up.

- Please vacuum / sweep / dust any areas to be painted; well in advance of our arrival. The less particulate matter in the air, the better your paint job will be.

- If possible, make sure the areas we are painting are empty of furnishings. This will allow us to paint the area properly, without having to spend time moving and covering furniture, etc... "Time is money," as they say, and the more time you save us, the more money you save. Of course, if you would like us to do this, we are happy to do so.
