What to record
- Compare preparation, work limits, drainage relationships, protection, disposal, care instructions and exclusions.
- Ask each provider to answer the same practical questions.
- Keep quoted totals and applicable tax or fees clear without requesting internal cost breakdowns.
The decision to discuss
Do not rank proposals by a product name or a glossy after photograph alone. Ask for the reason each approach fits the documented condition. Record uncertain items so they can be reviewed before approval.
Why the surrounding context matters
Concrete can change with moisture, temperature, load and support conditions. A visible crack therefore needs context before a repair method is selected. Use the observations below to explain the question; leave the project-specific diagnosis to the appropriate review.
Further background: NRMCA: cracking concrete surfaces. This general background does not diagnose your property.
Send the town, approximate size and access details with wide views and close-ups. Photos help us route the inquiry; we confirm the project scope before booking.
