A schedule is more than start and finish dates. Decisions, deliveries, drying and checks determine when the next stage can begin.
Decide this before construction
Dismantle retained elements only with an agreed recording and storage plan. Take final bespoke measurements after assessing the adjoining substrate.
Identify dependencies
A kitchen needs reliable dimensions before final measuring. Paint needs a suitable substrate. Make these relationships visible before booking isolated delivery dates.
What the drawing needs to explain
Prepare a detail sheet for the door, frame, skirting and wall together. Identify retained elements, refinished surfaces and locations requiring bespoke work.
Compare the complete intervention
Separate retention, repair and new bespoke work in the quotation. This shows the preparation and protection effort alongside the visible end result.
Questions for your own property
- Which delivery drives the sequence?
- Which choices remain open?
- When is hidden work checked?
