Design options
Start with the rooms and routines that need to change. Consider circulation, storage and how the work connects to adjoining spaces. Establish the decisions needed for pricing and identify which design or engineering input the project requires.
Materials and product selections
A useful proposal distinguishes selected products from allowances. Fixtures, doors, windows, cabinetry and finishes should be coordinated with lead times and installation needs. Product substitutions should be discussed before they affect adjoining work.
Construction considerations
Demolition can reveal conditions not visible at the first visit. Agree on access, protection of occupied areas, trade coordination and the process for documenting changes. The scope should make responsibilities and exclusions clear.
From first conversation to construction
Start with photos and priorities. Review the site and the information needed for the scope, coordinate selections and supporting design, then agree on the work before construction. Read BILDEN’s project process and keep the proposal, changes and care information together.
