A site visit from Forma 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.

- What arrives in writing, and when?
