Holes, cracks, stains and finishes
Walls, ceilings & paint
Describe the surface, the pattern and the history before choosing a patch or a larger finish boundary.
Start with a useful description
A crack that returns deserves a different conversation from a one-time impact hole. Keep previous repair dates, locations and photographs so the provider can compare the same area. Where water or uncertain material is involved, source assessment and safe access may need to precede cosmetic work.
What belongs in the written proposal?
Ask for the affected component, the basis of the recommendation, quantities and units, retained parts, exclusions and the conditions that could change the work. Keep the provider’s wording and your questions in separate fields.
