An assessment should explain conditions, not sell a fix
What’s visible on a wall or ceiling rarely tells the whole story. A useful assessment for a Wilmington home traces how water or humidity is entering, evaluates the condition of affected materials, notes what containment the eventual work will require, and lays out how results should be verified once repairs are complete.
