[quote=Anonymous]It's good to establish ground rules up front. I've made sure that they don't use our tools (after damaging them or returning them in a completely filthy state), that they don't smoke on the premises (my spouse is very sensitive to this, it's also nasty to have to pick up their cigarette butts around the yard), and clean up the workspace each day if possible. We've had instances where a contractor has dumped demo from another job on our property, left demo for weeks without removing it, and generally been inconsiderate of the yard/beds (leaving plastic shavings from PVC everywhere). If you're working from home, it's good to keep an eye on things to make sure to flag them when they happen.[/quote]
