Write down the outcome
List the rooms, repairs and finishes you want. Share photographs, measurements and relevant drawings, while allowing for site verification. Explain which spaces must remain usable.
Review the written scope
Discuss demolition, protection, materials, permits, inspections, deliveries and debris removal. Identify allowances and exclusions so you can compare proposals on more than the bottom-line price.
Manage changes and closeout
Unexpected conditions and selection changes can affect cost and schedule. Agree on changes in writing, then complete a walkthrough that records remaining items and any care instructions.
