Protecting Yourself

If your working in any field of Home Remodeling or Contruction, it's very important to use protection. Before you begin your next project think of these keywords: Head, Eyes, Lungs, Hands, Knees and Feet! Whether in  contruction or working around your house, use head gear (hard hat) especially if there are people working above you. The person above you could drop a tool, causing head injury. Eye protection is highly recommanded in any field of Home Remodelling or Contruction, etc. When cutting, painting, nailing, using chemicals, or in any other place of the job site, especially when others are working in the same area wear eye protecting at all times! If your working in a dusty area, cutting materials (saw dust), using paint or other chemicals alway use a respirator (face mask). Protecting your lungs is a matter of life or death! Many chemical and materials are very harmful to ones health. When carrying sharp object or wood and using tools, put on work gloves. This will prevent getting cuts or splitters and more. Best be sure when working in Home Remodeling or another blue collar line of work, you'll be on your knees! Using knee pads will help you from kneeling down on rock or pebbles, nails, cold concrete, hard floors, etc. All these elements are harmful to the knees and joints. When it comes to prevention of slip and falls, protecting you from twisting the ankle, you need ankle support. A comfy inside sole to prevent feet from hurting after a long days work. A good peer of heavy duty, above the ankle, non slip sole, comfortable work boots, will make your work day even smoother!
