What this work involves
Define whether the work solves storage, circulation or finishing. Include operation, maintenance and access to services. Final measurement should follow reliable building dimensions.
- Function and arrangement
- Material and finish
- Fittings and lighting
- Floor, wall and ceiling connections
- Measuring and installation
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Defer vulnerable final finishes until investigation and disruptive repairs are complete.
What the drawing needs to explain
Create a phase drawing with three colours: repair now, improve later and investigate first. Mark where phases meet, such as roof edges, service routes and finished floors.
How to review the result
Check both completed work and preparations for the next phase. Record which connections are deliberately temporary and when they will be reassessed.
Cost factors for this service
Material, fittings, detail and installation determine the price.
Bring this to the discussion
A sketch, photographs, approximate dimensions and the intended function.
