Painting & decorating
Decorating for managed properties
For owners, managing agents and occupiers, a shared understanding of the scope makes a decorating enquiry more useful.
Identify who approves the work
State who owns the brief, who can approve colours and who manages access. Include any required permissions or building instructions with the enquiry.
For common parts, define the boundaries carefully: entrances, staircases, corridors, doors and private areas may have different responsibilities.
Build the property schedule
- List the rooms and surfaces and provide photographs.
- Set out resident, staff or public access requirements.
- Identify working-hour, delivery and storage restrictions.
- Explain inspection, documentation and handover requirements.
Discuss a workable sequence
Phasing and availability are agreed for the individual property. If areas must remain open, explain the constraints before a programme is proposed.
A written schedule should distinguish decorating from other repairs or trades. Changes to the scope need to be agreed through the named contact.
