What Happens When Something Is Wrong
Step 1: Mark Finds It
During the visit, Mark discovers an issue — a failing battery, a leak, worn dock line, or electrical problem. He documents it with photos.
Step 2: Mark Calls You
Before the written report, Mark calls you. He explains what he found, what it means, and what it will cost to fix. No surprises.
Step 3: You Decide
You tell Mark to repair it, defer it, or get a second opinion. Mark coordinates with local shops if needed. You stay in control.
Step 4: Everything Documented
Written report is sent with photos, findings, recommended repair shops, and cost estimates. You have a paper trail for insurance and resale.
