Frequently Asked Question #42:
Q: Can I renovate a house without being there?
A: Provided that your specification was very clear at the start of the project, monthly visits to your house should be adequate during the early stages. However, it is advisable to increase the frequency of visits towards the end of the project, when the detailed finishing work is carried out - otherwise you may find that your builder stops work when decisions need to be made, or (worse) makes decisions that you don't like, thus extending the project duration.
