How a finding is reported
Illustrative example — not a customer report or a verified site finding.
Every recorded observation is located on the plan, photographed, measured where it matters and given a priority — so you can send one clear list to your developer, landlord or contractor.
OBS-014Moisture · living room
- Location
- Living room · ceiling, beside the supply diffuser
- Observation
- Water staining; 38% WME moisture at the stain edge against a 12% dry reference.
- Likely cause
- Condensate from the concealed fan-coil unit above the ceiling.
- Priority
- High investigate before handover
- Next step
- Open the access panel; check the drain tray, condensate line and insulation.
The right scope for your report
The purpose determines the checks and deliverables. OMEGA confirms both before booking.
Visible-condition record
A photographic record of the agreed areas and their visible condition. Technical testing, investigation and a full snag register are separately scoped.
Inspection limits stay clear. The record states inspected areas and access or test limits. It is not a structural certificate, valuation or compliance approval, and cannot guarantee that every concealed defect is found. Destructive tests and specialist certification are arranged separately.

Ask OMEGAWhen will the visit and report be ready?
Inspection duration and report delivery depend on the agreed scope, property layout and access. OMEGA confirms the arrangements before booking.
Can OMEGA help with the findings?
Repairs are not included in the report. OMEGA can quote them separately, or your developer can use the findings for rectification. A return inspection is separately agreed.
Are the guide prices final?
The displayed prices include VAT and apply to an accessible property within the stated area. OMEGA confirms the actual property, scope and price before booking.
