Master Bath Natural Stone Upgrade
Upgrade master bathroom tile from standard porcelain to Carrara marble. Includes material cost difference and additional labor for natural stone installation. No schedule impact.
Requested by: TD Construction
Schedule impact: None
"I recommend approving this one. The marble is a significant upgrade for a relatively small cost add. It will show well for rental income and resale. The tile supplier can hold the order through Friday."
Reviewed by: Tristan Roberts ✓
Framing 95% complete — headers set, roof trusses delivered and staged for Monday install. Kitchen demo wrapped up cleanly; plumbing rough-in starts Wednesday. Crew logged 52 hours across 4 workers this week. Rough framing inspection passed — zero corrections. On schedule, on budget. Next week: electrical rough-in begins Monday, on site Tuesday and Thursday for photos and MEP coordination.

Looking great from the photos. Kitchen is going to be amazing. Will review CO#3 tonight — stone upgrade makes sense. Can we pay Invoice #006 via ACH?

As a licensed California real estate broker (DRE #01259729), Tristan maintains a trust account governed by the Department of Real Estate. Project funds are held in a segregated, auditable trust account — never commingled with business or personal funds. This provides a level of financial protection that no unlicensed project manager can offer.

Tristan Reviews Every Invoice
Work verified on site before any payment is authorized. No pay without progress.

Contractor Gets Paid on Time
Approved invoices disbursed promptly. No chasing the homeowner. No payment disputes.
Why this matters: Contractors get paid reliably. Owners know their money is protected by DRE regulations. Every dollar is tracked, documented, and available for review in your portal. No more chasing payments, no more wondering where the money went.
