Related Work, Planned Together
Related tasks are easier to assess when they are submitted together. Wall preparation may affect painting, a door may require trim, and several rooms may share the same setup or materials.
Firm Priorities
Place anything tied to a move, sale, inspection, delivery, or fixed date at the top.
Flexible Tasks
Include smaller items that may fit the same visit when time, access, and materials allow.
I will identify anything that needs a licensed trade, Village approval, or a separate visit. Send product links before buying materials that must fit or match the space.
Village Requirements and Property Access
Permits and Property Review
Depending on the scope, some repairs, replacements, and alterations require a Village permit. Lakefront or bluff locations and changes to a designated landmark may involve added review. Send any approval information already issued.
Access and Decisions
Share any parking, entry, elevator, notice, or association rules that affect the visit. If the owner will be away, name the on-site contact and confirm who can approve a change.
Photos First, Site Visit When Needed
Photos may be enough for me to understand the visible scope and decide whether I can price it without visiting. Use a wide view to show the room, height, and access, then add a close view of the condition.
- The property address and the best contact person.
- The full list grouped by room, with firm priorities marked.
- One wide photo and one close photo of each area.
- Rough dimensions, product links, or model numbers when fit or materials affect the plan.
I may need to see the property before pricing when damage is hidden, dimensions cannot be confirmed, an earlier project changed the area, or several connected rooms must be assessed together.
Written Scope and Approved Changes
Included Items
Before scheduling, I list each task, its stated price, and what is included in the planned visit.
Hidden Conditions
If hidden damage appears, I stop, show what I found, and confirm the price before work continues.
New Requests
If you request another task, I confirm the cost and timing change before beginning that work.
Service Across the Village
The service area covers addresses near Elm Street, Hubbard Woods, Indian Hill, Crow Island, the lakefront, and other parts of the village. Send the address to confirm travel and availability.
One-Time, Larger, or Recurring?
For a one-time project, use the estimate request below. If the work spans several rooms or days, review premium services. For smaller tasks handled through planned return visits, review the maintenance membership.
Send the Whole Winnetka List
Send the address, complete list, wide and close photos, and deadline. If the photos and notes are enough, I will send a price. If not, I will ask for missing details or recommend a site visit.
