Prepare a room-by-room renovation brief
If several rooms are involved, write a short list for each one: what stays, what changes and which finishing details matter. Tell us whether you expect to live in the property during the work. This helps a discussion about sequence, usable rooms and responsibilities for other trades.
Separate kitchen supply from installation
For a kitchen enquiry, send the supplier’s plan if you have one and explain whether units have been ordered. Identify worktops, appliances, flooring and any electrical or plumbing changes. An installation quotation is easier to assess when it is clear which items and associated work are included.
Your project checklist
- Confirm Sutton-in-Craven rather than another Sutton.
- Group the work by room and identify your highest priority.
- Attach kitchen plans or measurements and explain occupancy during the work.
Useful local information
