The answer to your situation
An overview per space and clear details of damage give more information than just a close-up. Add estimated dimensions and your desired result.
See the finish in detail.
What should you check first?
First, create an image of the total surface, so that it is visible where the work comes from. Then, add details of cracks, structure, seams and connections. Photograph with normal light and avoid strong filters that hide the existing state.
How does this affect your choice?
Specify what can be seen on the image and which parts need to be finished. Please indicate, per space, or only walls, ceilings or both. A simple measuring condition helps, but an unknown area does not have to stop your first application.
Planning the next step
Report moisture, old paint layers and previous repairs. Also show accessibility and work height if these are special. An image is a tool for initial assessment; an on-site inspection may be necessary to check adhesion and build-up of the plaster layers. Do not send any data from other persons that are not required.
Practical checklist
- Create one overview per space
- Add damage images
- Name the finish
- Show accessibility
