About Renovation
Renovation contracting combines the project management complexity of construction with the client sensitivity of a premium home service. Every project is personal to the homeowner — they're living in or adjacent to the work — which means that communication, sequencing and defect management require a level of operational precision that protects both the client relationship and the contractor's margin.
The operational reality
The renovation project manager is coordinating tiler, plumber, electrician and joiner across a two-week kitchen reno while also quoting a new project and managing a variation request on a previous job. Client communications happen through their personal mobile. Procurement decisions are made on-site, with materials added to supplier accounts that are reconciled at month end. Snagging lists are compiled on paper at handover and worked through informally.
Where growth bottlenecks
- Trade sequencing managed informally — delays in one trade cascade to the next without a structured schedule
- Client variation requests handled verbally, with no signed-off change order creating a dispute risk at invoice
- Materials costs not tracked per job — profitability only known at accountant's month-end, not in real time
- Defect and snagging list management paper-based — items closed out informally, without documentation
