Before the first conversation

Often, yes. We check their condition and how the work next to them affects them before agreeing to keep them. Keep is a planning choice until then.

A designer and the appointed professionals check the wall and the approvals first. The planner leaves wall removal out of every allowance.

Condition and the applicable rules come first. We compare the scope after inspection; overlay does not fix an underlying leak.

After scope, access, approvals and deliveries are checked.

The appointed contractor checks HDB requirements with the owner’s acknowledgement; condo requirements come from management.

No. It is a selected works allowance for the rooms you choose, with modelled 9% GST and a 10 to 15% reserve. Inspection, material choices and an itemised written scope come next.

In writing, with their cost and timing, before any changed work starts.

The planner lists selected work, unresolved systems allowances and unpriced exclusions separately.

Ask whether protection exists, who provides it and what it covers. This demo has none.

The actual contract should name workmanship and manufacturer terms, exclusions and the defects contact. No Sillform warranty is claimed here.

Tell us early. Dust, access, water and power interruptions need a plan made for your home and your scope.

Your priorities, rough size, must-keeps, key timing and preferred month, and whether a floor plan is available. Keep the document and exact address out of this demo.

Our fictional process names a backup and records the handover. Ask for the real firm’s arrangement in writing.

No. The planner and the brief form work on their own. Copy the prompt is there if you already use an assistant.
