A site visit from Level goes further when the house has already been read: where the problems show, how the rooms are used, what has been tried.
What to have ready for the visit.
Have your plans or a recent survey, photographs of the areas that concern you and a note of past repairs. We measure and photograph on the day, and the written proposal that follows is only as specific as what we saw.
- Which plans, photographs or past quotes should I share before the visit?
- Who needs to be at home while you measure?
- What arrives in writing, and when?
Put this perspective into practice.
Each guide below covers what the service involves and the questions worth bringing to your site assessment.
