Build the scope before requesting proposals
Separate homes, villas, clubhouses, walls, fences, mail kiosks, railings, doors, and common-area structures. A clean scope makes bids easier to compare and reduces change-order confusion.
Put resident logistics in writing
Parking, gate access, pets, landscaping, pressure washing windows, and work-hour restrictions should be captured before scheduling. Resident notices are as important as the paint system.
Ask for phasing by street or building group
Phasing helps boards keep disruption low and lets property managers track progress. It also supports quality review after prep, after prime, and after finish coating.
