How to compare proposals
Before comparing two quotes, check whether they cover the same areas and components. Ask about the report format, photographs, follow-up explanation and findings that may require another specialist. A lower price does not establish value when the depth of work differs. For the visit, arrange authorised access and communicate limitations; do not remove components or perform potentially unsafe tests to prepare for an inspection.

Describe observed issues and areas of concern without private documents.

What changes the cost
Size, property type and number of accessible areas.

Common mistakes
Treating a visual inspection as a guarantee of no defects.
Hiring without agreeing excluded areas and report format.
Treating an observed crack as a definitive structural diagnosis.
