How to prepare for the visit
A little prep saves up to 30% of work time and cuts the risk of damage. Four simple stages below: the day before, the morning of, during the work, and after. If anything is unclear — send a photo and I’ll tell you what to do.
The day before
10–15 minutes the night before saves 30 in the morning and lowers the risk of having to reschedule.
Documents ready
Instructions, receipts or item codes — paper or PDF
Check the set
Open 1–2 boxes and make sure nothing is missing
Clear the zone
1.5 m around the work area, hallway clear
Know the wall
Concrete, drywall, aerated concrete or brick — if we’ll fix to it
Confirm the slot
Agreed window, lift / no lift, floor number
Phone charged
To stay in touch and receive the photo report
The morning of the visit
A final check 30 minutes before I arrive — so I can start straight away instead of waiting in the hall.
What to do
- Close pets in another room
- Clear the path from the door to the work spot
- Move fragile and expensive items away from the zone
- Cover rugs and soft furniture with film
- Check for a socket nearby — for the drill
- Unplug the old appliance an hour before
Flag in advance
- Floor 5+ without a lift — surcharge applies
- Narrow stairs or restricted access
- Water or electricity outage in the building
- Other tradespeople working in the flat in parallel
- Allergies — if you need dust precautions
During the work
Quiet means productive. Stay close for questions but give the worker room to move.
Stay reachable
10 seconds to answer beats 10 minutes of waiting
Ventilation
Silicone and dust — better with the window open
Give space
Easier to work without someone over the shoulder
Coffee optional
Thanks for the hospitality — but not required
Kids elsewhere
Safety — sharp tools, small parts everywhere
New tasks on the fly
