Aligning a proposed upgrade with inspection findings
Send the actual report and describe planned loads separately. The estimate should address the identified condition without silently expanding it into unrelated work.
Keep a defect correction and optional capacity increase distinguishable in the request. That helps ensure the estimate addresses the report without adding an unexplained broader scope.
Does a condition finding imply more capacity?
An inspection concern can call for correction without establishing that the property's demand requires enlargement. Conversely, planned loads can create a separate capacity question even where existing equipment operates.
The scope should address the report's actual finding and identify any demand evaluation separately. This makes the necessary correction understandable without silently converting it into a broader project the owner did not request.
