Islington 2010 will begin a window replacement project this fall. You will need to prepare for the construction but not right away. Wait and you will be informed when to start preparations.
How to Prepare
It goes without saying that you need to remove all window coverings, and the hardware too if possible. Those with stippled ceilings should use caution especially if it seems crumbly. If in doubt, leave it for the abatement experts.
Move furniture away from the window areas in the livingroom, den, and bedrooms – 4 to 5 feet if possible, and protect everything with dustcovers. It may be wise to remove wall art or cover it to protect from wind and dust.
Livingroom
Remove window coverings, clear space and cover furnishings
Bay window in den
Clear space for workers and cover furnishings
Bed
Cover bedding to protect from dust
Master Bedroom
Leave room inside for workers – clear space on the balcony too
Wall art
Wind may knock pictures off the wall – be prepared
