Why should I document everything?

In the event of damage to your property that may be caused by the  nearby construction activity, it is in your best interest to have  evidence showing how your property looked before the construction began.


Photograph "before" conditions in the exterior and interior of your  home. Include photos of the area between your home and your neighbor's  home that is being reconstructed. If you can show where the water flows  during a rainstorm, even better. For more information, please call  952-826-0369.
