Insurance companies often require a completed 4-point inspection before issuing coverage, especially for older homes. These inspections assess four critical systems:
- Roofing
- Electrical
- Plumbing
- HVAC
While the inspection process itself is straightforward, the traditional paper-based workflow can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
The Problem with Paper-Based 4-Point Inspections
Many inspectors still rely on paper forms, separate cameras, manual file management, and time-consuming report creation.
This process often involves:
- Completing paper inspection forms
- Taking photos on a separate device
- Returning to the office to upload images
- Scanning signed documents
- Organizing files manually
- Creating PDF reports
- Sending reports to clients or insurance providers
Every step introduces opportunities for mistakes, delays, or missing information.
