The first review separates urgent repair concerns from maintenance items, staining questions, chinking or caulking needs, surface prep, and larger restoration possibilities.
Some requests can be scoped from strong photos and follow-up questions. Hidden rot, structural concerns, difficult access, finish removal, or larger restoration work may need an onsite review.
Approved projects should have a clear scope, known exclusions, schedule constraints, access notes, and any customer responsibilities before work begins.
Exterior wood work depends on dry windows, product cure time, safe access, guest bookings, and owner approvals. Those constraints are discussed before scheduling.
