Yeah, but I'd still tell them 'what' concealed damage - 'such as the structural wall', meaning 'do not ignore this, and, if you do, do not call me'.

I liked to get into those 'What's the worst that could happen?' discussions with real estate agents and builders, gets you to really think about 'the worst' potential damage, and changes you whole way of looking at, and thinking about, things you see while inspecting.
