Define the outcome, price and completion time before handing over belongings or home access.
Task
Attach photographs and list what cannot be changed without approval.
Price
Separate assessment, materials, labour and delivery; require approval for overruns.
Acceptance
Check the result before final settlement and retain follow-up terms.
Record the result of the check
Keep clear evidence for each essential condition: a message, document or your own photograph. Distinguish confirmed details from verbal assurances. Resolve the specific uncertainty before paying or proceeding; a lack of objection is not the same as agreement.
