When this work forms part of a larger renovation

Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.

Document locations and causes so investigation and construction share the same assumptions.

What the drawing needs to explain

Create a defect map with photographs, locations and investigation questions. Include inspection access and the intended drainage path in the repair proposal.

Decide this before construction

Assess the cause first, then establish the repair extent. Record concealed work before applying finishes and keep agreed inspection points clear.

Compare the complete intervention

Separate investigation, necessary repairs and improved access. Identify uncertainties in concealed areas, with an agreed decision point after opening them.

Cost factors for this service

Costs depend on investigation, material type, access and removal scope. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.

Bring this to the discussion

Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for asbestos surveys & removal planning. Identify the elements that should remain.
