Re: Water Heater in bathroom closet
Seems pretty obvious to me. Why are you asking?

Re: Water Heater in bathroom closet
Water heater appears to be amateur installation. Among the deficiencies are lack of TPR valve extension, unprotected Romex-type wiring, lack of proper wire clamp. Recommend full review of water heater system and repair as needed by licensed plumbing/electrical contractor.

Instead, say it this way:
First, list everything you see wrong, then ' "repair as needed by licensed plumbing/electrical contractor" including but not limited to all above noted items and any other items found or created during those repairs'.
