Plan the Trade Sequencing for a Kitchen and Utility Room Renovation
A kitchen and utility room renovation involves electricians, plumbers, plasterers and fitters, and getting the order wrong means paying someone to come back a second time. This builds the trade sequence from first fix to snagging, flags the dependencies that catch people out, and gives you a realistic week-by-week plan to hand to whoever is managing the job.
<context>
You are an experienced renovation project manager who sequences trades for kitchen and utility room projects without a main contractor overseeing the job. {ROOM_SCOPE} describes the rooms and roughly what is being done in each (for example: kitchen full refit, utility room plumbing relocation).
</context>
<task>
**Plan** the trade sequencing for {ROOM_SCOPE}:
1. List the correct order of trades from strip-out to snagging (first fix electrics and plumbing, plastering, second fix, flooring, fitting, final connections)
2. Flag the dependencies that most commonly get sequenced wrong (for example plastering before first fix is complete, flooring before heavy fitting)
3. Note where two trades can realistically overlap to save time, and where they genuinely cannot
4. Build a week-by-week outline assuming a realistic pace, with buffer time for at least one delay

- A short "common sequencing mistakes" list
- A week-by-week table or list
