About This Service
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.
Check Manufactured Panels by Product
Cracking or damage in a manufactured firebox panel should be assessed with the fireplace model in view. Its repair boundary may differ from site-built masonry. The recommendation needs to identify the actual component rather than select a filler or replacement solely from color, pattern or approximate size.
Identify Glass as Part of the Appliance
Fireplace glass, retainers and seals can be components of an assembled system. An inspection of damage should consider that arrangement before a replacement is chosen. Keep the fireplace unused and people clear of broken material; household window glass is not a generic substitute for the appropriate fireplace assembly.
Revisit Requirements When the Model Changes
A replacement fireplace chosen after an earlier assessment may have different installation requirements. Tell Twin about the change before assuming the previous scope still applies. The existing opening, connection and surrounding work need to be considered for the product now proposed, not only the one originally discussed.
