What should you check first?

A wall can consist of masonry, concrete, sheet material and local restoration. These transitions must be visible to the performer before the finish. Send images and indicate which parts have recently been modified so that the approach is based on the actual situation.

How does this affect your choice?

Discuss which reinforcement or join belongs to the chosen structure. A necessary motion joint should not simply be overpatched. Product regulations and the condition of the substrate determine where and how a detail is performed.

Planning the next step

Also capture the desired appearance of the connection. Some transitions remain consciously visible, while others are finished within the system. Save appointments and material information for aftercare. If a tear comes back later, that information helps to assess the cause and an appropriate follow-up step.
