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
Start with a survey and trial repair, reviewing the result before treating the whole surface. Protect retained elements while removing adjoining material.
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
Mark intact, damaged and unassessed areas on photographs. Add the old-to-new junction detail with proposed materials and treatment.
Compare the complete intervention
Price investigation, sample work and repair extent separately. Agree how findings after exposing the substrate are recorded before expanding the repair area.
Questions for your own property
- Which delivery drives the sequence?
- Which choices remain open?
- When is hidden work checked?
Illustrative design situations, not evidence of completed work. Assess decisions against the actual property.
