Keep post-handover work in view.
Record defects raised after handover with their photos, location, responsibility and status. Keep follow-up work connected to the project and share a clear report with the people involved.
For builders, PMs, quality teams, and admins who need to track rectification items during the defect liability period.
Keep post-handover defects tied to photos, locations, owners, priority, and status.
Track contractor responsibility and proof for rectification work.
Maintain a report-ready history for client and builder review.
Post-handover defects still need structure
Defect liability period work often starts from client messages, old photos, and unclear ownership. SiteWarden keeps the record structured from the first capture.
- Each item can keep location, issue, trade, contractor, priority, and status.
- Evidence stays attached instead of moving through disconnected threads.
- The project team can see what remains unresolved.
Closeout history matters later
When a defect is disputed or reopened, teams need to see what was recorded, who owned it, and what proof was uploaded.
- Activity history supports later review.
- Contractor proof stays connected to the original item.
- Reports can package the closeout trail for client conversations.
What is defect liability period software?
It helps teams track and close defects raised after handover, including ownership, evidence, status, contractor responsibility, and closeout history.
Can SiteWarden help after practical completion?
SiteWarden is positioned around the closeout record, which can remain useful for defect liability period tracking, rectification proof, and client reporting.
Can I use SiteWarden for punch lists and defects?
Yes. Use project lists to record work that needs finishing or fixing, with photos, locations, trades, priorities and statuses. The current app labels these records as defects; the same record can describe unfinished work or an issue that needs repair.
How do contractors take part?
Your team assigns responsibility and controls review and approval. Contractor replies through WhatsApp are forthcoming and are not included in the current trial. In that planned workflow, contractors will send photos, voice notes and progress updates without a SiteWarden account; the builder will still approve the work.
