07Frequently asked questions

Before you hire

How is the quote put together?

After the site visit we measure and detail every item: scope, materials, deadlines and prices. You receive it in writing so you can review it calmly. Time to deliver the quote: [to be confirmed].

How long does a project take?

It depends on the type and size. As a guide, a bathroom or kitchen remodel may take [X weeks] and an extension or a new house, [X weeks]. The final timeline is set with dates in the contract schedule.

How do payments work?

By progress milestones: each payment is tied to a completed stage and agreed in writing in the quote. Deposit and percentages: [to be confirmed].

Can I live at home during the works?

In many projects, yes. Floors and access routes are protected, work areas are separated and the site is left clean at the end of each day; dust and noise are planned around what is being done. For larger projects it may be better to move out for a while: we discuss it at the visit.

Do I need permits?

It depends on the type of work and the comuna. Some works need a permit or regularisation with the municipal works office (DOM); we review this at the visit. For information only, not legal advice.
