a finish looks damaged and needs preparation before painting. Prepare and repair an agreed suitable stable surface crack for the next agreed paint or finishing stage.
Signs: a local area needs a bounded cosmetic repair rather than an assumed structural diagnosis or a stable local hole, dent, crack, patch edge or surface mark is visible. Causes: minor finish movement at a suitable stable surface or ordinary impact damage or local surface wear.
Cracks at openings and joins can need a different assessment from a shallow surface line. For wall crack repair, this detail is reviewed before work is accepted so the agreed task stays practical and proportionate. No structural diagnosis, subsidence assessment, active moisture repair, hazardous materials or engineering work.
Filling, drying and sanding may require more than one practical step. For wall crack repair, this detail is reviewed before work is accepted so the agreed task stays practical and proportionate. No structural diagnosis, subsidence assessment, active moisture repair, hazardous materials or engineering work.
Monitor the area after repair and report recurrence, widening, moisture or movement rather than repeatedly covering the symptom. Limits: Minor stable cosmetic surface cracks only. No structural diagnosis, subsidence assessment, active moisture repair, hazardous materials or engineering work.
