Conflicting reports may reflect different access, timing, scope, or interpretations. The disagreement should be traced to specific findings rather than resolved by choosing the more reassuring conclusion. Both reports may contain useful evidence.
What to do next
Compare photographs, inspected areas, limitations, and recommended work side by side. Ask each inspector to explain the disputed condition. If an important issue remains unresolved, obtain the appropriate additional assessment rather than using a broad rating to settle a detailed question.
