“The finish schedule is where clients' eyes get bigger than their budget. After spending correctly on structure, MEP, and drywall, there's often less left for the 'pretty stuff' than expected. Prioritize rooms guests see first: entry, living, kitchen, primary bath. Secondary spaces can be upgraded in phases.”
The first week of a full renovation is the highest-information week of the project. Demo reveals what's inside the walls. Photograph everything before demolition debris is removed. Conditions discovered during demo — rotten framing, knob-and-tube wiring, no insulation in exterior walls — are the core change order triggers. Document them before they disappear.
