How to compare proposals
Ask budgets to identify quantities, materials, labour, removal, transport, property protection and handover criteria where applicable. If an item is absent, ask whether it is excluded or will be priced later. Record every approved change and its effect on cost and timing. For an occupied home, include working hours, spaces that must remain usable and building coordination: logistics are part of the assignment too.
Information to prepare
List the rooms and problems you want to address.
Define what must stay and whether the property will be occupied.
State an investment range, building rules and target date.
What changes the cost
Affected area, existing condition and finish level.
Services, demolition and site logistics.
Permits, contingencies and approved scope changes.
Common mistakes
Comparing budgets that include different items.
Starting demolition without scope, authorisations and a responsible lead.
Accepting changes without recording their cost and schedule impact.

You can commission this service for a property that is not listed by Renwork. Your first enquiry only needs a case description, municipality and contact details. After scoping, you will receive a quote with the scope, responsible professional, fees and next steps. In-person coverage is focused on Antioquia; remote advice concerns Colombian matters.
