Demolition work
Before a renovation we remove the agreed surfaces and elements so the new stage can start. Any work on structures follows the documents and their assessment. We confirm waste removal and disposal in the quote.
Clearing the space for the next stage
We plan demolition and strip-out work around what should stay in the existing space. Protecting the surroundings, disconnecting affected services and handling the material all need to be agreed.
We remove agreed tiles, floor layers and other elements during a renovation. Any work on structures follows the technical documents and the necessary assessment. We confirm waste removal and disposal as part of the quote.

For an exact quote we need to know the real condition and your brief. What do we clarify first?
What do you need for a quote?
The type of work, location, photos of the current condition and dimensions. If you have a design or a bill of quantities, that helps too. A site visit may be needed for a more exact brief.
Who supplies the material?
We agree the choice and supply of material for each job. We clarify in advance which materials the quote includes and what the client may supply.
How do you set the date and length of the work?
It depends on the scope, the condition of the building, how the trades follow each other and technical drying times. For outdoor work the weather also affects the schedule. We confirm the date once the brief is clear.
What if more work turns up during a renovation?
Once floors or walls are opened up, the condition can differ from what was visible. We discuss the change with you and confirm the scope and its effect on price and schedule.
