When to use and what to include
Record inspection findings online, then generate a clear PDF report with documented outcomes. Use this when documenting the condition of a property before or after cleaning, typically for move-in/move-out inspections, post-construction punch lists, or recurring service quality checks.
What to include
- Property address, inspection date and time, inspector name, and purpose (pre-clean baseline, post-clean quality check, move-out condition report).
- Room-by-room condition ratings: cleanliness of floors, walls, windows, fixtures, and appliances, with a consistent rating scale (e.g., clean, needs attention, unsatisfactory).
- Specific findings per area: stains on carpet (location and type), grout discoloration, soap scum buildup, dust accumulation behind appliances, and any odors detected.
- Photos keyed to each finding with labels showing exact location and issue, taken with consistent lighting for accurate representation.
Common questions
- Can I save this Cleaning Inspection Report for re-inspections and audits?
- Yes. With an account, save it so future inspections can compare findings and close out outstanding items.
- Can I export this Cleaning Inspection Report as a formal PDF record?
- Yes. Download a clean PDF ready to share with clients or keep in your job files.
- Should I do inspections on every recurring cleaning visit?
- Set the inspection frequency from the service agreement, site risks, quality plan, customer requirements, and documented issues. Record which visits or areas were sampled and why rather than assuming one percentage for every account.
- How do I use inspection reports to maintain quality?
- Review reports with your team regularly. Patterns in findings (same rooms, same issues) reveal training gaps or unrealistic time budgets.
- Can I charge for a pre-clean inspection?
- For large commercial jobs, yes. For residential, fold it into the first deep clean price. Clients expect a walkthrough to be part of your process.
- What rating scale works best for cleaning inspections?
- A three-level scale (satisfactory, needs improvement, unacceptable) is simple and hard to argue with. Five-level scales invite subjective disagreement.
- How does an inspection report help the customer?
- It gives the customer a dated record of the conditions observed, supporting photos, recommended follow-up, and the inspector's sign-off. It should distinguish observations from work that still needs separate approval.
