Resolve moisture and drainage questions before framing
Visible staining, efflorescence, damp materials, exterior drainage, and sump conditions should be reviewed before walls or finishes conceal the foundation.
Measure ceiling height, beams, and ducts around the room plan
Finished ceiling height and overhead obstructions can change where rooms, soffits, lighting, and circulation belong, so they are documented before the layout is finalized.
Review egress around the proposed use
A family room, office, guest area, or proposed bedroom can have different egress and permit considerations. The intended use must be clear before an opening or room label is promised.
Map mechanical, electrical, and plumbing constraints early
Panel capacity, HVAC distribution, drains, water lines, cleanouts, shutoffs, and equipment access all affect the workable layout and finish sequence.
