SYSTEM DECISION
Match the System to the Source
A membrane or lining may address one pathway while leaving another unresolved. Compare systems only after the proposed source logic and limitations are written down.
Define the source each proposal claims to address
“Define the source each proposal claims to address” needs a distinct entry for source proposal claims address in the system decision file. For source proposal claims address, give reviewers one symptom timeline. Within source proposal claims address, separate observations from testing. Regarding source proposal claims address, compare methods and limitations. While reviewing source proposal claims address, expose exclusions and cost triggers. Before closing source proposal claims address, assign each conclusion appropriately. Connect source proposal claims address to the affected proposal line. Keep source proposal claims address dates and locations together. Classify source proposal claims address as observed or unresolved. Verify source proposal claims address before dependent work. Retain source proposal claims address revisions in system decision.
Ask what encapsulation cannot prove or repair
“Ask what encapsulation cannot prove or repair” needs a distinct entry for encapsulation cannot prove repair in the system decision file. For encapsulation cannot prove repair, map ground, wall, and rim zones. Within encapsulation cannot prove repair, note visible gaps and penetrations. Regarding encapsulation cannot prove repair, do not move wet materials. While reviewing encapsulation cannot prove repair, review within the whole assembly. Before closing encapsulation cannot prove repair, request compatible details in writing. Connect encapsulation cannot prove repair to the affected proposal line. Keep encapsulation cannot prove repair dates and locations together. Classify encapsulation cannot prove repair as observed or unresolved. Verify encapsulation cannot prove repair before dependent work. Retain encapsulation cannot prove repair revisions in system decision.

Before closing plumbing discharge dependencies, confirm discharge and jurisdiction questions. Connect plumbing discharge dependencies to the affected proposal line. Keep plumbing discharge dependencies dates and locations together. Classify plumbing discharge dependencies as observed or unresolved. Verify plumbing discharge dependencies before dependent work. Retain plumbing discharge dependencies revisions in system decision.
Record wet or damaged material handling
“Record wet or damaged material handling” needs a distinct entry for wet damaged material handling in the system decision file. For wet damaged material handling, give a labelled location. Within wet damaged material handling, date each weather observation. Regarding wet damaged material handling, separate facts from inference. While reviewing wet damaged material handling, photograph only when safe. Before closing wet damaged material handling, assign unresolved source questions. Connect wet damaged material handling to the affected proposal line. Keep wet damaged material handling dates and locations together. Classify wet damaged material handling as observed or unresolved. Verify wet damaged material handling before dependent work. Retain wet damaged material handling revisions in system decision.
Compare combined-scope sequencing
“Compare combined-scope sequencing” needs a distinct entry for combined-scope sequencing in the system decision file. For combined-scope sequencing, give reviewers one symptom timeline. Within combined-scope sequencing, separate observations from testing. Regarding combined-scope sequencing, compare methods and limitations. While reviewing combined-scope sequencing, expose exclusions and cost triggers. Before closing combined-scope sequencing, assign each conclusion appropriately. Connect combined-scope sequencing to the affected proposal line. Keep combined-scope sequencing dates and locations together. Classify combined-scope sequencing as observed or unresolved. Verify combined-scope sequencing before dependent work. Retain combined-scope sequencing revisions in system decision.
Require manufacturer and assembly evidence
“Require manufacturer and assembly evidence” needs a distinct entry for manufacturer assembly evidence in the system decision file. For manufacturer assembly evidence, give reviewers one symptom timeline. Within manufacturer assembly evidence, separate observations from testing. Regarding manufacturer assembly evidence, compare methods and limitations. While reviewing manufacturer assembly evidence, expose exclusions and cost triggers. Before closing manufacturer assembly evidence, assign each conclusion appropriately. Connect manufacturer assembly evidence to the affected proposal line. Keep manufacturer assembly evidence dates and locations together. Classify manufacturer assembly evidence as observed or unresolved. Verify manufacturer assembly evidence before dependent work.

SOURCE TRIAGE
Confirm jurisdiction and reviewer
Start with the regional permit source, then treat service pages only as published market examples.
- Comox Valley Regional District — PermitsStarting point for jurisdiction and permit checks; confirm the exact municipality and scope.
- Coastal Pacific — Crawl Space InsulationCompetitive result-set reference, not a specification authority.
- Siegfried Plumbing — DrainageShows drainage and sump work as a separate service category; no affiliation is implied.
