Quote prep

Send the repair story, not just a name.

Better repair requests include the visible issue, where it is on the home, why the repair matters now, and whether movement, water, or a sale timeline is part of the picture.

01Full wall first

Show the whole elevation so the crack or damaged area has useful context.

02Close damage next

Capture the mortar texture, brick face, joint line, and any mailbox or impact detail.

03Add movement notes

Mention foundation work, drainage changes, pre-sale timing, or whether the crack is growing.

Next step

Start with the repair problem, not a sales pitch

Share what you see: crack pattern, location, mailbox or wall damage, foundation history, and timing. That gives the request a cleaner starting point.
