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

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.
Deliverables:
Finished-conditions twin for side-by-side comparison

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."
