A coordinated approach to commercial flooring, from the first set of plans to the final project handoff.
A useful flooring proposal begins with a coordinated view of the drawings and specifications. Define what is included before comparing prices.
The installation plan needs to account for the existing substrate. Preparation requirements vary with site conditions, the selected flooring system, and manufacturer instructions.
New construction, renovations, and occupied spaces each call for a different sequence. Coordinate the flooring scope with other trades and the overall project schedule.
A replacement project involves more than choosing a new finish. Plan for disruption, protection, and the information the owner needs when the space is ready.
Provide the current architectural plans, finish schedule, flooring specifications, addenda, and bid instructions. Include the due date, anticipated start, and any phasing or site restrictions.
The proposal should identify the preparation included and any allowances or exclusions. Concealed conditions or an unknown substrate may require investigation before a fixed preparation price can be confirmed.
Include occupied hours, access restrictions, and the areas that must stay open in your inquiry. Phasing and after-hours work need to be reviewed and included in the agreed scope.
Bring your drawings, finish schedule, and project timeline.
