Your brief for this combination
Use this plan when discussing custom carpentry in a executive maisonette, with phased work as the priority. The current decision point is site preparation. Confirm that these assumptions match your actual home before using the checklist.
A maisonette requires coordination between levels. Stair access, protection, delivery and the relationship between activities upstairs and downstairs affect planning and installation.
Work to define: Custom carpentry
Resolve the measured dimensions, internals, hardware and interfaces before fabrication. An elevation should identify construction and access requirements, not only the visual proportions of the finished piece.
The working deliverable is approved carpentry and installation specification. For this property, start by resolving the following constraint: Map stair delivery clearance, protection and access between working levels.
Design for phased work
A phased plan needs workable access, protection and temporary household arrangements between packages. Confirm dependencies before assuming that trades can return independently.
Apply that priority to the approved carpentry and installation specification: List the minimum usable facilities and access needed between phases. Discuss the result against the actual executive maisonette layout rather than treating a similar photograph as evidence that the detail will fit.
At the site preparation stage
Confirm access, protection, sequencing and responsibilities before work begins. Arrange any required checks or permissions for the actual property and do not assume a generic planning page grants approval.
The expected stage output is: An agreed access, protection and work-sequencing plan with responsibility owners. Resolve the phased work question within this record, so the priority is carried through the custom carpentry work rather than lost between drawings, quotations and site instructions.
Four questions to resolve together
- For custom carpentry: Which interface is still unresolved before fabrication approval?
- For phased work: Which later package depends on an earlier concealed or connection detail?
- For this executive maisonette: Map stair delivery clearance, protection and access between working levels.
- Before completing the site preparation: Identify the first dependent work item that cannot proceed until another check is complete.

Property requirements and scope boundaries
Check current HDB requirements for the actual scope and verify the appointed contractor where required. This page does not establish permit eligibility.
Record existing condition, retained items, quantities, named products or specifications, exclusions and responsibility owners. Pricing and feasibility require the actual scope and site information. This scenario does not establish a market price or confirm that any work has been approved.
