Contractor Information:

Custom Wood Specialties is licensed and insured for your, and our, safety. A certificate will be provided upon request. We will not undertake any project we deem to be unsafe.

Site Conditions:

The installation of the interior trim and cabinetry takes up a surprising amount of space on the job site. The following items are required before work can begin:

• The job must have vehicle access to the house for unloading tools and supplies. Tools will not be carried back and forth from the street.
• The jobsite must be cleared out of all debris including sheetrock, buckets, unrelated materials, and be in broom clean condition.
• The job should be ready. All windows installed, all sheetrock work complete, all materials on site or ordered, all priming complete.
• There must be an easily accessible space to store and separate all the different materials.
• There must be a safe, clear work area for the various saws, tools, and tables along with enough space to rotate long lengths of materials.
• There must be electrical power available within 100 ft of the front door.
• There should be a dumpster or designated area to dump debris and empty waste containers.
• There must be toilet facilities (porta-potty) on site.
• Other interior work to be performed (tile, hardwood, HVAC, etc) should be scheduled not to interfere or conflict with interior trim and cabinet installation.
