- How should I use the starting rate?
- Alesta’s guide begins at £29 per hour. Describe new joinery and the extension threshold before the actual work is quoted.
- What should I inspect first?
- Start with new joinery and the extension threshold; keep routine dust removal distinct from marks that require another assessment. Ruislip: scope summary should connect new joinery and the extension threshold with the extension’s connection to the original house. Keep new joinery and floor finish identifiable and confirm whether the internal connection is clear.
- Must the final trade finish first?
- Include final making-good at the connection when checking whether the trades have finished.
- Are all fixed marks treatable?
- Record any limitation instead of treating damage as removable dirt.
- How should I mention offcuts?
- Clarify who will remove the remaining project materials. Where Alesta is asked about collection, its scope and price need confirmation apart from the clean.
- How is fitted-room detail scoped?
- Describe the fitted kitchen from the accessible outside: fronts, worktop surroundings and floor. Any wanted internal detail should be identified as a separate part of the enquiry.
- What if the work was mainly painting?
- Yes, once the relevant surfaces are ready. Allow the specified interval for paint, sealant or coating before contact cleaning.
- How long should I set aside?
- The condition after the final trade visit is relevant to estimating the clean. Explain what will genuinely be finished and what will still limit access.
- Are outside panes included automatically?
- If a window is wanted, name its location and the face involved. Room-side access does not establish that its exterior or a higher adjoining pane can also be cleaned.
- How should the rooms be prepared?
- The working route must be accessible. Confirm that the internal opening is clear and whether equipment must pass through occupied parts of the house.
