A strong brief includes room photographs, any licence-to-alter notes, consumer-unit photos and a clear list of rooms in scope so buy-to-let refresh work is not mixed with a full services-led fit-out.

We sequence survey and approvals questions before irreversible openings where that protects neighbours and the written price basis for the accepted flat renovation package.
