01PLANNING GUIDE
Finishes are the most enjoyable decisions in a renovation and the ones most likely to delay it. Choosing in the right order, from proper samples, with lead times in mind keeps the project moving.
Next step
Get matched with contractors who give you a clear decision schedule for your project.
Talk to a renovation specialistOr message us on WhatsAppSome choices are needed before work starts because they affect first fix: sanitaryware, mixers, kitchen appliances and lighting positions. Tiles and flooring are needed before those trades start. Paint colours and accessories can come later. A decision schedule from the contractor shows what is needed when.
Colours shift between screens, showroom lighting and your home. Look at large samples in the room where they will go, in daylight and under the lighting you plan. Natural stone varies between batches; see the actual material if possible.
Imported tiles, stone, custom joinery and specialist fittings can take weeks. Ordering after work starts is a common cause of delay. Ask suppliers for confirmed lead times and order early.
