PROJECT GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

1.    GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO CHALK ALL WALLS AND ELEMENTS SHOWN ON THE LAYOUT CONTROL PLANS (SHEETS A050-A099) AND REVIEW WITH OWNER ON SITE TO OBTAIN APPROVAL PRIOR TO COMMENCING FRAMING OF WALLS, CEILINGS, AND BUILDING ENVELOPE OPENINGS OR POURING OF CURBS.
2.    GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO PRESENT OWNER WITH OPTIONS FOR ALL EXTENDED WARRANTIES WITH ASSOCIATED COST AND DOCUMENTATION. 
3.    ALL DRYWALL SHALL BE LEVEL 5 FINISH FOR THIS PROJECT.


CARE AND STANDARDS

​1.       PLEASE CARE. 

    CARE LIKE THIS IS YOUR HOUSE, AND YOUR MONEY. WE'RE BUILDING MORE THAN JUST BRICKS & MORTAR. THIS WILL BE A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE SPEND LOTS OF TIME AND EARN THEIR LIVING,  A PLACE WHERE GUESTS CREATE LIFETIME MEMORIES. TAKE PRIDE IN THE WORKMANSHIP OF YOUR TRADE. CLEAN UP AT THE END OF EACH DAY AND PLACE ALL REFUSE AND WASTE IN THE DESIGNATED RECEPTACLES.

2.       ALWAYS ASK, NEVER ASSUME

    WHEN IN DOUBT, EVEN JUST A LITTLE BIT, ASK. OUR TEAM IS HERE AROUND-THE-CLOCK TO ANSWER EVEN THE SMALLEST QUESTION - BECAUSE ALL THE LITTLE, SOMETIMES SEEMINGLY INCONSEQUENTIAL DETAILS, ADD UP TO CREATE THE FINAL PRODUCT. 

3.       NO SMOKING

    ALL BRICK & WEST PROJECTS ARE NON-SMOKING ENVIRONMENTS. THERE MAY BE DESIGNATED AREAS FOR SMOKING, BUT NO SMOKING WILL BE PERMITTED WITHIN 20 FEET OF THE AREA IDENTIFIED AS THE SCOPE OF WORK FOR THIS PROJECT, INCLUDING OUTDOOR PATIO AREAS.

4.       BRING US YOUR BEST IDEAS.

    JUST BECAUSE WE HAVE DESIGNED OR SPECIFIED IT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S NECESSARILY THE BEST IDEA. BE INQUISITIVE, ASK QUESTIONS, AND LET US NOW IF YOU HAVE BETTER IDEAS. WE ARE ALL A TEAM WORKING TOWARD THE SAME GOAL, SO DON'T BE AFRAID TO CONTRIBUTE.

5.       SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING

    THE NATURE OF CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS IS SUCH THAT ONE ITEM IS BUILT ON THE PREVIOUS - SO HOLD YOUR TEAMMATES IN THE FIELD ACCOUNTABLE TO ENSURE THAT THE FINISHED PRODUCT IS SOMETHING EVERYONE WILL BE PROUD TO HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO.
