PROPER:
Regardless
of what it is you are doing, there is a proper way to approach and execute the
task. There are steps to follow and specific tools you will need in order to
complete any project efficiently and skillfully. If you don’t know how to do
something, for example install a ceramic backsplash, get as much information as
you can from a reliable source so that you do not miss any important steps, use
the wrong materials or attempt something outside of your skill set.
PLANNING:
Thoughtful,
detailed planning is so important when starting a project. Start by making
lists that detail what you want to accomplish (scope of work), who will be
involved (the design team and trades), and what will you need to make it all
happen (the budget). Be specific and research each category so that very detail
has been addressed and nothing has been overlooked.
PREVENTS:
As the saying goes, “An ounce of prevention is
worth a pound of cure.” It is always a good idea to have a Plan B firmly in
place so that you are ready to address issues as they arise, and they
will! Establishing a backup plan will prevent costly delays that can
occur during renovations.
POOR:
If
something is done poorly, why bother. Cutting corners to save money will result
in poor workmanship and disappointing results. If you think hiring a
professional is expensive, wait till you see how much an amateur costs!
PERFORMANCE:
If
you keep focused and stay actively involved with each phase of your project,
every member of your team will work together to produce the best possible
results.
