Project: Storage Area

Objective:

Move my family to servants quarters/office and vacate main house.

Details:

We've been living in the main house for a whole year now and have used the office/servant's quarters for a temporary storage. The main house is the only facility capable of being used as a reception/coffee shop/hotel. It has two rooms and two bathrooms.

If we can transfer the equipment from the servants quarters to the storage facility.
We can then move to the servants quarters after it has been treated and cleaned.

Assessment

Carpenters that I have spoken to are Kanoto and Ka Martin has referred a certain Lito. Project Management is difficult because 1. I am not an engineer 2. Trickery that is involved.

Guides

1. Normally, the rule of thumb is = multiply estimated expenses by 3 to ensure that the funds are appropriate. 

2. Project could be approached on a piecemeal basis. 

3. Buy 1/3 of materials and do labor 1/3 of the time.

4. Get the current prices for each individual item.
