What does a Residential Project Manager do?

When thinking about carrying out home renovations, the first port of call is usually to contact a builder or an architect. But there is in fact an alternative way to do things, a way that will not only save you time and money, but will also ensure your renovation runs smoothly and on time, and that is to work with a Residential Project Manager

Engaging a Residential Project Manager to help run a residential build or renovation can make a huge difference to the process and overall outcome of a project. A good Residential Project Manager will save their clients unnecessary stress and ensure a project stays on, or even under budget. 

So what does a Residential Project Manager actually do?

  • Oversees projects from beginning to end - They will oversee your project from start to finish and make sure each step of the project is carried out as it should be. Those steps are typically: design, tender and build.
