Scope limit: Educational planning only; this page does not diagnose a leak or its cause, design or specify plumbing or restoration work, assign responsibility for any component, approve any scope, or determine the outcome of work at a specific strata property.

Purpose and limits
Plumbing-related work in a strata property may involve a qualified specialist, property authorization, access preparation, protection, opening or demolition, and later restoration. This guide organizes the handoffs. It does not diagnose a leak, assign legal responsibility, or state that Seven Stones performs regulated plumbing work.
Confirm authority before entry
Identify the property manager or council contact, unit or common-property location, entry permission, resident or tenant notice, elevator or loading requirements, working-hour limits, and the person who can approve a changed scope.
Define the specialist and construction boundaries
Record who owns the plumbing or other specialist task; who provides access; who protects corridors, elevators, units, finishes, and contents; and who restores drywall, concrete, surfaces, or landscaping. The exact Seven Stones role requires scope review.
Document conditions without overreaching
Use wide and close photos that avoid private documents, faces, access codes, and unnecessary identifiers. Record visible moisture, openings, damaged finishes, previous patches, access constraints, and unknowns. Photos do not confirm the hidden cause, required treatment, structural condition, or responsibility.
Establish the restoration boundary
Before restoration, record the approved opening, material or finish expectations if known, drying or specialist clearance if required, adjacent conditions, exclusions, and the evidence needed for closeout. Do not promise an exact match or outcome without evidence and an agreed scope.
Keep a handoff and closeout record
Track authorizations, dates, responsible parties, before, access, and after photos, approved changes, unresolved items, and the handoff back to the property representative.

Frequently asked questions
Does this guide diagnose a plumbing cause?
No. It organizes authority, access, protection, specialist responsibility, restoration boundaries, and closeout records.
What should be confirmed before entry?
Confirm the authorized contact, location, entry permission, notice requirements, shared-route constraints, and who can approve a changed scope.
Does a photograph define the restoration boundary?
No. Photographs record visible context; the opening, clearance, materials, exclusions, and restoration scope require site-specific review.
