Planning around preserved building fabric
For a Charleston renovation involving preserved interiors, share drawings that identify the walls, floors, and mechanical routes affected by the work. Materials from different repair periods should not be treated as one uniform installation. Discuss access limitations before booking, particularly when finishes must remain intact or different owners control adjoining portions of a building.
