One record from discovery to repair
A snag list records incomplete or defective work found during a construction inspection. It is also called a punch list. A useful register tells the next person exactly where to go, what needs attention and what evidence is needed before the item can close.
Defect Remedian connects that register to the people doing the work. Site teams record the defect, subcontractors return repair evidence, and an independent inspector checks the result. Project managers can follow the same record instead of reconciling several spreadsheets and message threads.
How the snagging workflow works
Record the location and evidence
Capture defects and photos in the Android field app, including when the site has no signal. Changes queue for sync when connectivity returns. Use the project structure to identify the tower, floor and unit.
Put the repair with its owner
Send the responsible subcontractor a repair link by WhatsApp, SMS or email. They verify access with a one-time code and upload their evidence without creating an account.
Re-inspect before closure
A repair submission is not a verified closeout. An independent inspector checks the work; subcontractors cannot verify or close their own items. The record retains the evidence for review.
Prepare the handover
Use the verified records in a closeout package for the owner's decision. See the construction handover workflow for reporting and acceptance.
Built around the site and the office
The Android app handles field capture. The web console gives office teams a project view and supports floor-plan pinning with drawing versions. Pins are placed on the web, not in the phone app. iPhone and iPad users can use the web console in their browser; the offline field app is Android.
For an existing register, Excel import supports a dry run before committing a batch. This gives the team a chance to resolve validation issues before importing, with a reversible batch if a correction is needed.
When is a spreadsheet enough?
A shared sheet can suit a small list with one person coordinating repairs. Start with our free snag-list template if that fits your project. Software becomes useful when several trades update the same list, field teams need offline capture, or the owner needs a traceable repair and inspection history.
In a demo, bring an example unit, the trades involved and your current register. We can walk through who captures, repairs, re-inspects and accepts the work against your process.
