Safety & Site Visits

We understand that you will want to visit your new home during construction. A new home construction site is exciting and can also be dangerous. Your safety is of prime importance to us.

For safety and insurance purposes, we require that you visit your homesite only on Sunday, or as we like to call it "Sunday-Funday" — our weekly open-house day for buyers. You may visit anytime between noon – 5pm, and we require that you check in at the Classic Homes model/sales center before visiting your home. You must wear a hard hat, and a member of our staff must accompany you during your visit.

Please always observe common-sense safety procedures when visiting:

  • Keep older children within view and younger children within reach, or make arrangements for childcare.
  • Almost all falls happen when stepping backward, so please look in the direction you are moving at all times.
  • Watch for boards, cords, tools, nails, or other construction materials that might cause tripping, puncture wounds, or other injury.
  • Do not enter any level of a home that is not yet equipped with stairs and rails.
  • Stay a minimum of six feet from all excavations and potential fall hazards.
  • Give large, noisy equipment or delivery vehicles plenty of room. Assume that the driver can neither see nor hear you.
  • Site visits are at your own risk.

In addition to safety considerations, be aware that mud, paint, drywall compound, and other construction materials are in use and can get onto your shoes or clothing.
