A useful record connects an observation
to a clear next step.

01 / OBSERVATION

The point

In this illustrative format, a marked photograph records where materials meet. It is not an inspection of a real roof.

PRIORITY: For on-site assessment
NEXT STEP: Record condition and context before recommending work.
