Diagnosis comes before treatment
What's visible is the smallest part of the job -- a complete plan also addresses the water entry point, humidity, material condition, containment, and verification once work is done.
A complete scope includes
- Existing conditions and likely cause
- Preparation and protection
- Materials, compatibility, and installation details
- Permits, testing, cleanup, and restoration
- Exclusions, warranty terms, and change-order process
Troy context
Correcting a moisture source in Troy means accounting for both the building itself and what's underneath it: Oakland County's glacial till drains unevenly, with sandy moraine in some spots and poorly drained Blount and Lenawee clay in others, so the same fix that works on one block may not solve the same symptom a few streets over.
