Lapa is a hillside of large old houses, apartment buildings and older condominiums, with courtyards, internal gardens and west-facing terraces. Many walls and roofs meet at different levels.
Access for the assessment
Gates, service stairs and private gardens may be the only way to the reported area. Name the person with the key and whether the property is occupied or empty.
Component, access and reinstatement
Identify the affected point and nearby finishes to define repair and reinstatement.
Thick walls
In Lapa, say whether the pipe is concealed and which finish would be opened: plaster, stone, timber or tile.
Empty house
State whether the property is unoccupied and who approves the opening and the reinstatement on site.
What to provide for a quotation
- Affected pipe or component, if known
- Whether water is escaping or isolated
- Access and operating restrictions
- Finishes to protect and reinstate
Does the quotation always include finishes?
Not necessarily. Repair, access, removals and reinstatement should be itemised in the scope and exclusions.
Does opening a wall in Lapa include closing and painting it?
Only if that work is written into the scope. On older finishes, closing, drying and decoration should be itemised separately from the pipe repair.
Attendance, scope and scheduling are agreed for the specific property. This page does not represent a local office or a completed job in the area.
