When we get to the drywall stage on a new construction project, there is still a lot that can affect the final product.
The walls may look clean and the rooms may finally start to feel like a finished home, but this is also a stage where I am constantly looking at the details.
Because once the painting, trim, cabinetry, flooring, and other finish work are installed, correcting certain issues becomes much more difficult.
That is why I do not look at each phase of a new construction project as an isolated step.
I am always thinking about what comes next.
