RE: carpet replacement
What I do - Notify tenant that you wish to replace the carpet in these named locations and it will take X hours and they are solely responsible for removal/replacement of all personal property necessary. Stipulate that the tenant or someone they choose to represent MUST, MUST be at the apartment during the entire process. (The last thing I need is the tenant to call me later that nite and say "I left $500 cash on the dresser and now it's gone.") This must be done prior to the arrival of the installers. Give the tenant a 30 day window to choose a day/days. If I do not trust the tenant enough, I put everything in writing and state that they are responsible for canceled installation fees for not being present/moving furniture at time of agreed arrival not to exceed $XX amount. If it's in a common area, notify all tenants of the work and when it's planned for.

RE: carpet replacement
Last note- Workers will need onobstructed access to and from the entrance to the location and free access to the bathroom. Sounds nit-picky, but I've had tenants balk over this.
