Story Renovations

Scheduling

What this covers

Section titled “What this covers”

A renovation is a sequencing problem. Trades have to land in the right order, and you need dates you can plan your life around — when demo starts, when the kitchen is usable again, when you get your house back.

This area holds the dates the project is judged on, and the record of how they have changed.

Milestones

Section titled “Milestones”

A milestone is a key date on your project: permit issued, demolition complete, rough-in done, substantial completion. Each one is a real record with a target date and an actual date, not a line in a status email.

Milestones are short by design. They mark the moments that matter to the people paying for and living through the work, rather than tracking every task on site.

A milestones report pulls them together across a project, so the dates can be read in one place instead of assembled from meeting notes.

History, and why it matters

Section titled “History, and why it matters”

Milestone dates change. Materials arrive late, an inspection gets rescheduled, a wall opens up and reveals something.

Story keeps the history. Changes to a milestone are recorded as they happen, and snapshots preserve what the dates looked like at points in time. That means the question “has this date moved, and when” has an answer on the record.

Movement in a schedule is normal. Movement nobody can trace is the problem, and keeping the history is how the second one is avoided.

What you see as a client

Section titled “What you see as a client”

You see your project’s milestones and their dates. When a date changes, the prior date isn’t overwritten out of existence — the record shows the change, so the conversation starts from the same facts on both sides.
