Glen Iris property context

Explain whether the goal is a repaired surface, a newly installed item or a refreshed room detail. This keeps preparation and materials connected to a useful customer outcome.
Planning the work
Plan and complete agreed preparation and compatible finish maintenance on suitable sound boards, with repair items identified separately. Identify any additional items separately so the scope and preparation are understood by everyone arranging the work.
Review board condition, fixing safety, prior coating and moisture exposure before deciding whether a maintenance sequence is suitable. Any unresolved requirement should be explained before committing to a visit or buying additional materials.
Allow the agreed finish to cure as directed and report loose boards, rot or coating failure before using the deck normally. Discuss any final finish or product-specific restrictions before returning the area to ordinary use.
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
