Mentone property context
An occupied Mentone property may need preparation before wall crack repair can begin. Send wide and close photos of the crack, its length, nearby corners and any recent changes you have noticed.

Identify who provides access, who approves work and which items are optional.
Planning the work
Unexpected conditions can alter the available options. Any additional work, different components or separate specialist requirement should be discussed before extending the agreed task, rather than treated as automatically included.
Clear the immediate working area where safe and explain heavy furniture or restricted entry. For rentals or managed properties, agree the appropriate permission and identify the person who can provide access.
