Timing and Schedules, for Example a Two Story Addition
The scope of the project and uncontrollable factors like the weather in San Diego can put a damper on your two story addition. A simple bathroom remodeling may only take a few weeks, while a two story addition may take six months or more.
To stay on schedule, you need to plan your two story addition ahead of time:
- Be sure to build time into your schedule for obtaining the necessary permits.
- Expect to set aside time for telephone calls and regular meetings with your contact person to review the two story addition progress and discuss the schedule for remaining work.
- Ask your remodeler to provide you with a weekly schedule.
- Ask your remodeler which product orders require the longest lead times. For custom-made items, it is especially important to make your selections as early in the process as possible.
- Realize that changes you make to the project after work has begun may affect the schedule and the budget. Change orders should include prices, full descriptions, and authorization in writing before any new work begins.
