We will produce the Report with reasonable care and skill and it is provided to the Customer on the basis that they acknowledge and agree to the following:
4.1 The information in the Report is based on a visual inspection only of the exposed and accessible main parts of the structure e.g. walls, roof, foundations etc. to determine the structural condition and general state of the Property.
