The Home Renovation Planner: Budget Tracker, Quote Comparison, Decisions Log and Snagging List for Any Building Project
Product Information
Product Description
Renovations do not go wrong all at once. They go wrong in small undocumented decisions, six weeks apart.Who said the boiler could move. What the second electrician quoted. Which tile you chose and how many boxes. What you have actually paid against what you agreed. Whether that crack was there before.This is a book for the whole project: quote comparison sheets so you are not choosing on price alone, a budget tracking quoted against actual with a contingency line, a decisions log so nobody can rewrite history, room-by-room specification sheets, a weekly site diary, and proper snagging lists for the end.Sturdy enough to live on site, undated, and laid out to be filled in with a pen in a dusty house.WHAT'S INSIDE• Project overview - scope, dates, key numbers• Trades and suppliers contact directory• Quote comparison sheets - three trades side by side• Master budget - quoted against actual, with contingency• Payment schedule and stage payments record• Decisions log - what was agreed, when, and by whom• Room specification sheets - finishes, fittings, measurements• Materials and orders tracker with lead times• Weekly site diary sheets• Variation and extra works record• Snagging list by room• Documents and certificates checklist• A decisions log - the most useful page when a dispute starts• Budget tracks quoted against actual, so overruns show early• Quote comparison covers exclusions, not just the headline price• Snagging sheets built for walking round with a penA paperback of 50 pages, 8.5 x 11 inches.
