The subject-specific need
Identify materials needing special care and keep manufacturer instructions near supplies. Explain permitted products instead of trying something because it suits a different surface.
An options comparison sheet
Send the same brief to each provider and record duration, duties, supplies, timing and exclusions for every option. Mark unwritten terms as needing clarification.
Working checklist
- List surfaces with particular care instructions
- Identify permitted products for each surface
- Separate work requiring a specialist
Applying the checklist
If one option includes the first duty and another excludes it, do not record them as equivalent services. Align the comparison scope before reassessing cost.
Are we comparing the same scope and duration?
Write an answer specific to your home, then add the duty, its location and review time. Use this table during discussion; it does not replace an offer or contract.
| Duty | Location | Review time |
|---|---|---|
| List surfaces with particular care instructions | ||
| Identify permitted products for each surface | ||
| Separate work requiring a specialist |
Boundaries to confirm
Do not mix cleaning products and follow their labels; damage treatment and specialist work require an appropriate provider.
