Capture snags and make the PDF on site

Site Inspection App

Built for Site Inspection App on active job sites. Observations, locations, severity, and photos stay together in a report-ready field log.

Quick answer

What is a site inspection app?

A site inspection app is a mobile tool for documenting conditions during a construction or building inspection, capturing each observation with photos, a severity, and a location. Punch List & Site Audit replaces paper inspection forms and produces a structured report you can share straight after the walk, generated on the device with no office step.

01

What teams need from Site Inspection App

Site teams need structured observations, photo evidence, and same-day inspection reports.

Observations, locations, severity, and photos stay together in a report-ready field log.

02

How Punch List & Site Audit fits the workflow

Each snag can carry location, trade, status, due date, notes, and photo evidence in one record.

That keeps snagging surveys consistent and makes PDF reporting fast at handover.

03

Why crews keep it on site

Instead of paper notes or static spreadsheets, the whole snagging list stays live in the field and easy to share.

Contractors, surveyors, and homeowners review the same structured record from first walkthrough to final sign-off.

How it works

From walkthrough to report in three steps

Punch List & Site Audit keeps capture, assignment, review, and handoff in one iPhone workflow.

1

Create the project

Start a site, client, or renovation project and keep each job separated with progress counts and search.

2

Capture every snag on site

Add title, notes, location, photos, status, priority, category, assignee, and due date as you walk — a few taps per item, then Save & Add Another to keep the walkthrough moving.

3

Generate the PDF before you leave

Turn the list into a client-ready PDF with photos and item details right on site — no laptop, no retyping it later. Pro unlocks clean branded reports, export, and iCloud sync.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a site inspection and a snag list?

A site inspection documents conditions and observations at any point during a project, while a snag list records defects and unfinished work near completion. The same app handles both workflows with the same item structure.

Who uses site inspection apps?

Main contractors, QA and QC teams, clients, architects, consulting engineers, and building inspectors, in short anyone who walks a site and needs a defensible photo-backed record of what they saw.

Can a site inspection app work offline?

Yes. Punch List & Site Audit captures observations, photos, and notes offline, which is essential for basements, shells, and remote or newly handed-over sites with no reliable connection.

What should a site inspection report include?

A location, the date, the inspector, a description of the observation, a severity or risk level, and photo evidence for each item, plus a project summary page. All of that is produced automatically in the PDF export.

How often should site inspections be carried out?

Routine inspections are often weekly or at defined milestones, while handover inspections happen near practical completion. The right frequency depends on project size, risk profile, and the contract with the client.
