Parkville property context
An occupied Parkville property may need preparation before deck restoration can begin. Send wide deck photos, close board and fixing images, the current finish and any weathered or damaged areas. Mention rooms that need to remain usable and identify who can agree the scope and arrange entry. For a Parkville quote, describe each task separately and note height, parking, tenant access or preferred appointment windows. This gives the Owner enough context to assess the request without collecting unnecessary personal information.
