Observation before diagnosis

How to document concerns, and why a photograph cannot establish the cause.

A visible crack is something to document and assess, not a diagnosis on its own. At Anchor the property’s history and your observations come into the conversation first.

We separate observations from the proposed repair.

We explain what the site assessment can establish and when further investigation or engineering input is needed. Drainage, relevant records and the findings behind the written repair scope and its limits are shared with you.

A FOUNDATION REPAIR PLANNING CHECKLIST
  1. Which observations and property history are relevant?
  2. When is further investigation or engineering input needed?
  3. How are findings, repair scope and limitations documented?

Put this perspective into practice.

Each guide below covers what the service involves and the questions worth bringing to your site assessment.

  • Which site observations, drainage history and movement records justify further investigation or independent engineering?
  • What assessed cause, engineered scope, monitoring plan, exclusions and warranty limits support the proposed repair?
