Drying Progress Reports
This page covers interim reporting only — the updates issued while equipment is still running. Closing reports are covered separately on the drying completion reports page.
A drying progress report explains how the programme is developing between the initial assessment and completion. It should show what was measured, what changed and whether the equipment or scope needs adjustment.
The report is a factual contractor update, not a coverage decision or guarantee of completion by a fixed date.
Core report fields
Useful fields include date, room or zone, material, monitoring position, reading type, environmental conditions, equipment status, observations and actions.
Explaining a plateau
Where readings stop improving, the report should identify possible reasons and the investigation or change proposed.
Access and limitations
Areas that could not be entered, measured or opened should be recorded so the reader understands what the update does not confirm.
