Prepare trade interfaces
What should a condo bathroom owner know before requesting a water shutdown?
Ask the responsible plumbing and building teams to define the shutdown needed for the proposed bathroom work. The owner should coordinate information and permissions, not assume that an accessible valve isolates only their unit or personally operate shared equipment.

Provide the actual removal scope
List the fixtures and finishes proposed for removal and the items expected to remain. Give management and the responsible trade the unit, work area and available drawings. A request that says bathroom renovation may be too broad to identify the affected service. The demolition team needs a clear release condition for its own work.
Identify who else may be affected
Management should determine notification and building access arrangements with the appropriate trade. Ask who authorises the shutdown, who carries it out and who confirms the condition before removal begins. Do not use a booked demolition date as proof that the shutdown is approved. Keep unresolved dependencies visible in the sequence.
Arrange restoration and exception handling
Confirm who tests or checks the relevant service and who tells management that the work is ready for the next stage. If the intended scope changes, ask whether the existing shutdown instruction still applies. This guide focuses on the bathroom owner's coordination responsibilities within a shared building, not on plumbing procedures or a promise that SiteClear performs disconnection work.
