Walkthrough checklist

  1. Record existing walls, openings, services and damage, then verify uncertain items with the appropriate trade.
  2. Separate required repairs from optional replacements so quotes show where the budget goes.
  3. Agree which access, isolation, removal and protection steps are needed before work starts.
Worked example

Imagine refreshing a care bathroom where the family wants to reuse existing fittings, but their condition and support suitability are uncertain.

Record the fittings and wall conditions, then ask the care and installation professionals to assess what can remain. Separate repairs from optional upgrades and confirm any support changes before finishes are closed.

How to test it

Walk through the marked-up plan with the installer and record conditions that would change scope or cost.
