When a multi-service technician or a contractor coordinates several trades on the same renovation, the order in which each enters the site is as important as the quality of each professional's individual work.
Usual order of work
Demolition and rough masonry first, followed by electrical and plumbing (with partitions still open), then plasterboard or new partitioning, tiling and flooring, painting, and finally finishing carpentry (doors, skirting) and final clean-up. Changing this order almost always creates duplicated work.
Most critical coordination points
The electrician and plumber passing through before partitions are closed is the point where coordination most often fails: if one trade finishes and closes up before the other has passed, it has to be opened again. Just as critical is that the tiler does not start before the bathroom waterproofing has fully cured.
Why a single person in charge of coordination saves money
When the client hires each trade separately with nobody coordinating the order, the risk of miscoordination soars. Offering coordination as part of the quote (even if each trade is subcontracted) provides real added value and cuts dead time on site.
