Decisions to make
Ordered by urgency. Vanity install locked for first week of Sept — now waiting on Marcos to confirm a matching Aug start.
Confirm Aug start date with Marcos
Awaiting reply
Christian confirmed vanity install for the first week of September. Rob asked Marcos to push his start from July 13 to the first week of August — a 4–5 week build starting then wraps right around vanity delivery, letting the vanity install happen at the end of his window (no return visit needed). If Marcos can't shift, the original Jul 13 start stands and a separate vanity-install visit is needed in early Sept.
Owner: Rob · Awaiting Marcos's reply
Pay Marcos's 40% deposit ($7,560)
July 6 — confirmed
Rob has confirmed to Marcos that the deposit will be paid on July 6 at pickup. Final detail review at that time.
Owner: Rob
Choose cabinet pull style: edge pull vs. traditional
Tell Christian ASAP
Christian recommends edge pulls (they hide cleanly on modern slab doors). Touch-latch / push-to-open is also available. Integrated pulls would carry an upcharge. Cabinet build is in progress — pull style needs to land before hardware install.
Owner: Rob & family
Source customer-supplied finishes
Before July 13
Marcos's quote excludes materials. We need to buy and have on-site: tile + grout, shower door, mirrors, plumbing fixtures, lighting fixtures (incl. sconces), pocket door, toilet, recessed shower niche shelf accessories. The vision board below is where we're collecting picks.
Owner: Rob & family
Finalize arched shower entry dimensions
Confirm w/ Marcos
Marcos has approx. 9' × 32" arched opening. The inspiration "arch-use-this" reference and the green-arch images are the look we're going for. Final exact dimensions to be marked on-site before demo.
Owner: Rob · Confirm with Marcos on-site
Confirm cabinet finish
Before cabinet build starts
Fecht estimate lists finish as "TBC" (to be confirmed). White oak slab is approved; the finish (matte, satin, oil, etc.) still needs to be picked.
