Planning the work

Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
Send a close view with dimensions, a wider wall photo, edge details and any evidence of moisture or prior repair. Keep labels and instructions available so the item can be identified accurately instead of relying on a general description.
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.
