What happens here
The first physical assessment involves looking upwards to identify potential overhead obstructions. The contractor points out power lines running above and around the house, as well as a tree in the front. He explains that if an excavator were to be used for demolition, these overhead utilities and natural elements could be hit, posing significant safety and logistical challenges. This step is crucial for planning safe machinery operation and potential utility disconnections or tree removals.
