i think u better find help with wrapping. It will help a lot for the after cleaning.

HIP peeps wont wrap free for u, at least not my case. They will cover up as per their SOP but wont be enough.

Need to put up two layers of plastic sheets. Buy those thick ones otherwise they'll be torn easily. One put up by them and one by you. You can put up yourself if you know how. One person can do it. Also need to buy strong tapes otherwise the tapes will be easily torn off the painted wall/ceiling surfaces. Some paint damages is expected because you use strong tapes. Just do some paint touch up will do. No need to repaint the whole house

Can borrow those adjustable length aluminium poles from the contractor to do

They supply and attach the first layer? We buy the 2nd layer; and do 2nd layer ourselves?

the makeshift toilet is usually on the ground floor.
But then, if wake up at wee hour and want to pee, problem..need to go downstair to pee.
Too troublesome that’s why best to book 1 week hotel first, second week the bathroom will be done

Ofc you need a ladder otherwise how to reach the ceiling to do taping?
That's the problem. My helper can't climb ladder now. And her " brothers " have gone home. Otherwise they would probably help. I gave one of them my treadmill and Osim chair

Make sure the ladder is a tall one. The same height as a person type is too short in this case

What you mean ?

Means if master bedroom has a toilet, then not possible to sleep in it. Too dusty. Slept in the spare room still not so bad which was what i did when my place was undergoing HIP. Only problem is at night want to pee need go down to the temp toilet. Got a spittoon and every morning bring down to empty.
