Key Challenges & Solutions

1. Weather Dependencies: Low-slope roofing and HVAC startup require specific temperature conditions—teams monitoring forecasts and prioritizing work during suitable windows
2. RHS Extended Closure Opportunity: School closure presents chance to accelerate work beyond original scope—requires intensive coordination for re-sequencing
3. Environmental Coordination: Daily onsite presence by G2 Consultants ensuring safe abatement and trade access at RHS
4. Testing Delays: Tennis court infiltration testing dependent on viewing port installation—team maintaining close coordination to minimize schedule impacts
