PROGRESS & PRECOVER DOCUMENTATION

The record that survives the sheetrock.

Construction buries information on schedule. Plumbing, wiring, blocking, and structure disappear behind insulation and drywall — and every question asked afterward costs a hole in the wall. A pre-cover scan preserves accessible rooms and visible in-scope conditions in a measurable, shareable record for the agreed hosting or retention period.


When to Capture:

  • Pre-pour — utilities and embeds before concrete

  • Pre-cover — the full job after rough-in, before insulation and sheetrock

  • Milestones — dated progress records tied to your pay-app schedule

  • Closeout — the finished-conditions record your warranty period will thank you for

  • Section — What it prevents Change orders priced blind. Subs penetrating what they can't

Building Your Own Home?

Pre-cover documentation isn't only for builders. If you're building a custom home, ask your builder to include a scan before insulation — or order it directly. It's the cheapest insurance you'll buy on the project.

What it Prevents:

  • Change orders priced blind.

  • Subs penetrating what they can't see.

  • Warranty disputes argued from memory.

  • Texted photo threads standing in for documentation.

Dated Milestone Reports

 "If you're willing to take individual photos of every wall in every home you build and keep them through the warranty period — great. The value to us is that no wall is ever missed, and the file lives forever. It's easy to navigate and easy to share with every subcontractor, which saves a significant amount of back-and-forth emailing and texting images."
