About This Service
Describe the timing of visible water
Tell us where water first appears and when you noticed it. A stain can mark an earlier event rather than an active entry point. Assessment considers the reported pattern and relevant chimney components without assuming that the nearest visible crack caused the leak.
Keep transaction requirements clear
A property transaction can involve deadlines and specific questions from a buyer, seller or another professional. Share those requirements before the visit. An inspection should not be described as satisfying a particular requested report unless its scope and deliverable actually match that request.
Confirm who can approve further work
For a rental or managed home, establish who can authorize access and a repair recommendation. The person reporting the concern may not be the person approving work. Clear coordination keeps an inspection finding from being mistaken for permission to begin a separate paid task.
Assess a long-idle fireplace on its present condition
A fireplace's appearance or the time since it was last lit cannot by itself establish readiness for use. Share what is known about the idle period and any earlier concerns. Twin assesses the actual installation and explains any maintenance or further investigation proposed.
