Use the tool first, then send the sharper brief.

These tools are there to help you ask better questions. Once you have a rough range or clearer diagnosis, we can review the actual site conditions and turn that early thinking into practical advice.

  • Book a survey if the tool confirms the project is live and the scope is becoming clearer.
  • Send photos, sketches and measurements so we can review access, levels and sequencing properly.
  • If you are dealing with drainage failure or structural movement, treat the tool as triage and escalate quickly.
