ADELIE Project Rescue

Concerned about your current remodeling project?

Get a clear, balanced second opinion before making a major decision. We help homeowners organize the facts, understand common construction issues and identify practical next steps—without creating unnecessary conflict.

Educational and construction-planning guidance only. A site review is not a legal opinion, engineering report, code certification or guarantee of another contractor’s work.

How the service works

A structured review, not a rushed judgment.

  1. 01
    Gather the facts

    Contract, plans, change orders, invoices, photos, permits, inspection records and written communications.

  2. 02
    Identify the concern

    Clarify whether the main issue is cost, schedule, workmanship, documentation, communication or incomplete work.

  3. 03
    Review the project

    We explain visible conditions, common construction sequencing and questions that deserve a direct answer.

  4. 04
    Choose the next step

    Continue with clearer expectations, request corrections, involve a specialist or plan a responsible transition.

Project Health Check

What may be included

Document Review

Scope, proposal, payment schedule, allowances, exclusions, change orders and project communications.

Progress Assessment

Compare completed work with the documented scope and identify unresolved decisions or dependencies.

Visible Condition Review

Document observable concerns and explain when a licensed specialist, engineer, inspector or attorney may be appropriate.

Completion Planning

Organize remaining work, trade sequencing, required approvals, material status and closeout records.

Our position

We do not begin by telling you to fire your contractor.

Many project problems can improve when expectations, documentation and communication are clarified. When a transition is truly necessary, it should be planned carefully—not made in panic.

Our goal is to help you understand the project and make an informed decision. We will not diagnose concealed conditions from photos, certify code compliance without the proper authority or present a construction opinion as legal advice.

Your project story

First, tell us what happened—without giving us your contact information.

Use this private worksheet to organize the project in your own words. Nothing here requires a phone number or email. You can decide afterward whether you want ADELIE to review it.

You are not overreacting by wanting clarity. Remodeling problems can leave homeowners feeling ignored, uncertain or stuck between protecting the project and avoiding more conflict. This step helps you document the facts and regain a sense of control.

What has this situation affected?

This worksheet asks for no contact information and does not enroll you in marketing. For urgent safety, active water, electrical, gas, or structural concerns, contact the appropriate licensed professional or emergency service.

Your situation is now documented.

You may keep this as a personal record, use it to prepare a conversation with your current contractor, or take the optional next step below.

Apply for an ADELIE review

Optional next step

Ask ADELIE to review your project.

This is a separate application. Contact information is requested only here so we can respond and determine whether a phone consultation, document review, or site visit is appropriate.

Show us what you are seeing (optional)

Wide photos help us understand the room or project stage. Close-ups help document workmanship, damage, or unfinished details. Upload up to three images, each up to 25 MB. Files are stored privately.

Submitting does not create a contractor-client relationship or guarantee that ADELIE can accept the project.

Frequently asked questions

Project Rescue FAQ

Will ADELIE tell me whether my contractor is legally at fault?

No. We can explain construction scope, sequencing, visible conditions and documentation concerns. Legal conclusions should come from a qualified attorney.

Can you review photos before visiting the property?

Yes. Photos and documents can help identify the right questions and whether a site visit or specialist is appropriate, but they cannot reveal every concealed condition.

Can ADELIE finish a project started by another contractor?

Potentially. The remaining scope, permits, existing work, access, documentation, schedule and project fit must be reviewed first.

Should I stop paying my current contractor?

ADELIE cannot advise you to withhold payment. Review your contract and obtain legal advice before taking an action that may affect your rights or obligations.

Can you provide a written report?

Depending on the service selected, ADELIE may provide a written summary of observations, documents reviewed, open questions and recommended next steps. It is not an engineering or code-compliance certification.

Clarity before conflict

You do not have to make the next decision alone.
