Keep the final site list moving.
Capture unfinished work and defects as you walk. Keep the photos, trade, responsibility and status together so your team can follow up and report on outstanding items.
For builders and site teams preparing practical completion inspections, defect walks, owner reviews, and final handover reports.
Capture each item while the site context is fresh.
Assign contractor responsibility with location, trade, priority, and photo evidence.
Verify completion before generating a client-ready closeout report.
Practical completion needs speed and structure
The final site walk creates too much loose evidence for spreadsheets and message threads to hold cleanly.
- Voice and photo capture reduce after-walk admin.
- Structured fields keep the defect list useful for PMs and inspectors.
- Report-ready records reduce late handover document rebuilds.
Keep ownership visible
Each item needs enough context for the responsible trade to act and enough control for the builder to approve.
- Contractor names and trade context stay visible.
- Proof uploads support verification before report export.
- The closeout trail stays connected to the original defect.
Why use an app for practical completion defect lists?
An app keeps photos, voice notes, locations, statuses, priorities, and contractor ownership tied to each defect, which helps closeout and reporting.
Can contractors update their assigned defects?
SiteWarden is designed for contractor accountability, including restricted access, status context, proof uploads, and builder-side verification.
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.
