See the finish in detail.
What should you check first?
Please indicate which rooms are available and whether the house remains occupied during work. A bed, closet or fixed storage wall can limit the work space. Ask in advance what needs to be removed and what may remain covered.
How does this affect your choice?
Discuss walls and ceiling separately. A small crack, old glue or ceiling structure may require extra preparation. Also choose paint or wallpaper immediately so that the desired finish fits. Especially thin wallpaper or light along a wall deserves attention in the appointment.
Planning the next step
Plan the return of furniture on the basis of the actual drying condition and the follow-up finish. Keep the new wall accessible for control and painting. Speak a logical moment to get the room back into operation and change the schedule in time when drying time is longer.
Practical checklist
- Report the inhabited situation
- Clear the workplace
- Choose paint or wallpaper
- Replace plan in consultation

Plan use, protection and ventilation together

Discuss these points for your home
- Clear the agreed working area.
- Keep vulnerable items outside of work.
- Ask when and under what conditions the room can be further finished.
