Client Portal

Clear communication and organised records matter throughout a renovation or new build. Elite Additions uses a client portal to help keep project information together and give clients a practical reference for the work being discussed.

The information shared can include site diary updates, schedules, progress claims, variations, documents and specifications. Available sections and records depend on your project and the access provided; a client portal is not unrestricted access to every internal business record.

Already building with Elite Additions?

Use the project invitation or access link supplied to you. This public page explains the portal; it is not a login form. If you need help finding your invitation or accessing your project, contact Scott rather than creating another building enquiry.

A site diary records activities, observations and events during construction. Used consistently, it helps both builder and client understand what has happened and what needs attention.

• Communication: a shared reference for the updates and decisions made available to you.
• Documentation: records of work, site conditions and relevant events, rather than relying on memory.
• Accountability: a way to identify the activity, date and people involved in an issue.
• Issue resolution: a record of concerns and follow-up actions that can help clarify discussions.
• Reporting: information that supports progress updates and milestone reviews.
• Record keeping: factual notes that can be referred to alongside the contract and project correspondence.
• Historical reference: a record of how the work developed over the project.
• Progress tracking: a way to compare reported activities with the planned sequence.
• Safety documentation: relevant site observations and actions, without replacing the site’s safety systems.
• Change management: a record of discussions about changes and their next steps.

A diary entry is not, by itself, approval of a variation or a replacement for a required notice, signed agreement or certificate. The applicable contract and approval requirements still govern those processes.

A construction schedule sets out the planned sequence of work, key milestones and the decisions needed along the way. Keeping that information organised supports:

• Clarity: understanding the planned stages and expected sequence.
• Communication: discussing progress, changes and potential delays using the same reference.
• Responsibilities: identifying tasks and client decisions that need attention.
• Resources: coordinating trades, material orders and equipment.
• Early problem solving: identifying dependencies or delays before they affect later activities.
• Budget planning: considering how the work sequence relates to decisions and expenditure.
• Historical reference: reviewing earlier programmes and the reasons for changes.
• Milestones: following major stages of the project.
• Collaboration: allowing the client and builder to discuss practical arrangements.
• Efficiency: reducing avoidable confusion about what is needed next.

Programme dates can change as site conditions, approvals, weather, supplies or agreed variations affect the work. Ask us to explain an update rather than treating an old schedule as the current plan.

Progress claims, variations and project documents

Keep the relevant claim, variation, drawing revision and selection information together. Read documents carefully and raise questions with Scott. Only rely on the current issued drawing set and the approvals that apply to the work; an earlier concept or discussion upload should not be treated as a construction instruction.

The portal supports communication. It does not replace your contract, required approvals, agreed payment terms or the correct process for authorising a change.
