Project preparation

In all cases, the resident must prepare a written contract agreement (recommended to use the contract template RT 80262) and deliver a copy of it to the property manager. If necessary, TA will appoint an expert to represent TA in the project. The parties agree on the schedule, review and information exchange related to the project.

Implementation

You can now begin the alteration works or let the contractor know that they can begin. The TA expert will carry out the agreed reviews, prepare the necessary documents and ensure that the work carried out is of high quality and compliant with the permit for alteration works. When the project is finished, the property manager and the TA expert will approve the results. In the case of minor alterations, a final review is not necessary. The resident is responsible for the supervision of work as well as its quality and the results.
