BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT
Changes to the cupboard beside the bathroom
Marks on the cupboard beside the bathroom are an observation, not a confirmed explanation of the moisture source. Bring the available history and describe what is currently visible.
Visible marks
Show the cupboard beside the bathroom and adjoining clear finishes in the same wider photograph.
A change in smell
Explain when the room smells different and whether that coincides with a visible change.
Droplets or wetness
Distinguish water you have actually seen from an assumption prompted by a stain.
A spreading stain
Compare dated photographs of the cupboard beside the bathroom where available; explain expansion, fading or a changed outline.
Repeat dampness
Note when wetness returns, the room activities around it and any known water event.
Earlier cleaning
Describe any wiping of the cupboard beside the bathroom and how the finish appeared afterwards.
READ THE ROOM
Understand the moisture history, not just the shared wall
Describe the shared wall and plumbing history while keeping the cupboard contents separate from the accessible finish. Also note whether the room was aired, heated or unused before a reading; humidity at one moment does not describe its whole history.
For the cupboard beside the bathroom, the inspection service is a starting point for accessible observations. Continuing water entry or failing materials may need separate investigation or repair. A visible inspection cannot provide clearance for areas concealed behind the finish.

Humidity and moisture information
A professional hygrometer contributes room-air relative-humidity information alongside observations of the cupboard beside the bathroom. Explain the relevant room history; a reading does not identify every water source.

For the cupboard beside the bathroom, distinguish surface concerns from damage needing another trade. Ask what observations will be supplied afterwards; laboratory analysis and a particular written report are not assumed inclusions.

If dampness continues around the cupboard beside the bathroom, discuss water entry or damaged materials with the appropriate trade. Remediation has a separate scope; future growth cannot be ruled out by inspection.

Questions before your inspection
Should the adjoining bathroom be included?
Mention both spaces when booking and agree access. The cupboard concern may be discussed alongside visible bathroom conditions without assuming every room is included.
Can the shared wall be opened?
Wall openings and destructive investigation are not assumed within inspection. Describe existing visible surfaces and discuss limitations if a concealed source is suspected.
What plumbing history is relevant?
Give dates for leaks, repairs or fixture changes near the shared wall. Explain observed changes rather than treating proximity as proof of a plumbing cause.
Do cupboard contents need separate photographs?
Yes, if they show changes. Identify the item and its position so belongings can be distinguished from the accessible cupboard and wall finishes.
Can an empty cupboard provide a better view?
Discuss safe clearing and access first. Avoid dismantling fixed storage; an empty shelf does not necessarily expose every wall or enclosed section.
Does a bathroom-side clear wall rule out cupboard moisture?
No. Each accessible surface has its own visible condition. A clear finish on one side does not establish what lies inside the shared wall.
