Keep stored rainwater and overflow arrangements understandable for the system’s intended use.
What the visit should establish
Identify tank, catchment, screens, pump if present and labelled uses. Ask how accessible debris, overflow, support and separation from drinking-water supplies are reviewed under the actual system guidance.
Where routine care reaches its limit
Collected rainwater should not be assumed safe to drink. Tank entry, connected plumbing and water-quality concerns need appropriate professional assessment.
Make the service record useful
Ask for findings tied to the actual item and location. Record components and uses recorded, overflow concerns identified, cleaning or treatment limitations explained. Separate work completed from areas only observed, and leave inaccessible parts clearly marked. That record gives the next provider a practical starting point instead of another unexplained service sticker.

Questions worth asking
What information makes this care request more useful?
Start with tank and catchment arrangement and screens and pump equipment. Add dated photographs and describe when the concern occurs. A precise brief helps the provider decide what can be assessed on the first visit and what needs a separate investigation.
How do I distinguish maintenance from renewal here?
Keep useful existing components in service when the assessment supports that approach. Collected rainwater should not be assumed safe to drink. Tank entry, connected plumbing and water-quality concerns need appropriate professional assessment. A failed item needing renewal belongs in a separately defined Replacing scope; a change in capability belongs at Upgrading.
