A very common question.In a world of iPhones and Teslas, it might seem that having a project ensures everything will go smoothly.
But we work with people. To be honest, things can go wrong.
There will be many contractors, and even if all are reliable, each has their own understanding of quality, convenience, and aesthetics.
Don’t assume your project will be an exception — discrepancies happen on any construction site.
You can either accept them or minimize risks with design supervision.
What the designer does:- Weekly site visits — client-side oversight keeps the entire team disciplined.
- Project compliance checks — mistakes are identified early when they are easy to fix. For example, 5–15% of sockets and switches often end up in the wrong places.
- Contractor consultations — smooth collaboration between multiple contractors requires constant coordination.
- Photo and video reports — not only for oversight but also to later understand where communications run and where, for instance, drilling is safe.
- Adjustments as needed — surprises always happen on-site. If a load-bearing column appears instead of a brick wall, we update the project to prevent errors and rework in the future.
