A concrete decision
Imagine a stain beside a window: photographing it records an observation; attributing it to a leak requires further evidence. The report should distinguish those steps. A useful recommendation explains what needs review, by whom and at what priority, without presenting a hypothesis as a confirmed diagnosis. Ask for inaccessible areas, unavailable utilities and any conditions that limit interpretation to be identified.
