Before the masonry contractor arrives, clearing the work area around the chimney and fireplace is crucial. Move any furniture, decorations, or items that may obstruct access to the repair site. Creating a clutter-free zone allows the contractor to work efficiently and reduces the risk of accidental damage to belongings.

If the fireplace has any valuable or delicate items on the mantel or nearby shelves, consider temporarily relocating them to a safer area during the repair process. The vibrations and dust generated during masonry work can pose a risk to fragile items.

Remember, chimney repairs can generate dust and debris. Take proactive measures to protect furniture and valuable possessions. Cover them with plastic sheets or drop cloths to shield them from dust and potential damage during the repair process.

Additionally, seal off any adjoining rooms or areas near the chimney to prevent dust from spreading throughout the home. Use painter's tape and plastic sheets to cover doorways, vents, and openings. This extra step will help contain the dust and ensure a cleaner environment.

Open communication with a masonry contractor is essential for a smooth and successful repair process. Before work begins, discuss any specific concerns or requests about the project, including concerns about architectural features.
