What this work involves

- Substrate assessment
- Required finish level
- Corners and reveals
- Drying and sequencing
- Protection and cleaning
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Check material transitions between rooms before ordering individual finishes.
What the drawing needs to explain
Use the same room and detail numbers on drawings and in the room book. Identify the approved revision for each item and which supplier still needs to provide information.
How to review the result
Use the room book as a handover checklist. Review transitions first and individual products afterwards; a fully supplied room can still have a missing junction.
Cost factors for this service
Area, substrate, thickness and detail work influence the price.
Bring this to the discussion
Wall and ceiling photographs, areas and intended finish.
