Question

1. we see evidence of considerable leakage below the skylight. what do we report?

options:
the skylight should be replaced
there may be considerable concealed damage
the skylight should be caulked
the drywall should be repaired and repainted
the skylight lens should be replaced

Explanation:

When there's considerable leakage below a skylight, visible leakage often indicates that there could be more extensive, hidden (concealed) damage behind or around the skylight area that isn't immediately visible. Replacing the skylight, just caulking, or only repairing drywall/painting are more specific fixes that might be premature without assessing for concealed damage first, and replacing the lens is too specific without knowing the root cause. So the most appropriate report is that there may be considerable concealed damage.

Answer:

B. There may be considerable concealed damage
