If you can take your household items from renovation area, then cover them with plastic. In most of the cases, you will have big items and like arimora, double cart bed and few more that you cannot get out of the room. So if you want preserve the looks of these type of items in your home, then cover them completely with plastic during a remodeling process. This will avoid dust from getting stuck into the breaks and gaps of furniture and items. This also helps finishing of the items to not to get a dull look.

Isolate the area

Before renovation process starts, talk to the contractor and ask him if there are any plans or methods to keep the house away from debris. Depending on the type of project, you can ask your contractor to keep plastic sheeting over the doors to seal the area. If you are planning for extensive home remodeling, you can ask the contractor to cover door frames with heavier plastic tarps.

Along with all these steps, also follow daily cleanups. Ask your contractor to clean up every night when they leave as this will help to reduce the amount of mud and debris and dirt that spreads through the house.
