- Whether the business stays open during the work.
Because 19th-century mill-village homes in Ballardvale and planned early-1900s houses in Shawsheen Village often add layout and access constraints in Andover, hidden conditions behind the walls are priced honestly at the walkthrough, not discovered mid-project.
