Meet your new inspection report
We’ve rebuilt the PDF report from the ground up and given the digital report a sharper header with improved controls. Here is a side-by-side review of what changed with the report you know today.
Your report is the part of myInspections your clients actually see. It has to look professional, be easy to scan, and you need it to carry your brand, not ours. The old PDF report worked, but it was starting to show its age with a sparse cover, separate table of contents and summary pages that seemed to do the same job, areas that each started a new page and left most of it blank, and branding that stopped at a logo on the cover and business name in the footer.
A cover that leads with the property
Our old cover page was mostly white space with a small logo in the corner, the address, and a table of dates. The new cover opens with the inspection type in your brand color and the address set large. Add a photo of the property and it runs across the cover; leave it out and the cover still looks finished. Underneath sit the date and the people involved, plus a handy little QR code that takes anyone holding the printout straight to the digital report with every photo and video.
Bold and classic covers, with and without a property photo, branded for Top Shelf Property Co. The photo is optional: both covers look complete without one.
Your brand, all the way through
If your plan includes branded reports, we’ve beefed them up so your brand is the one on show, not ours. Set a brand color (or let us pull it from your logo) and it runs through the whole report. You can also add a phone number and email address, which print on the PDF cover and appear in the header of the digital report.
In the digital report, tenants can tap your phone number or email straight from the header. The inspection type picks up your brand color.
Fewer pages, nothing left out
The old PDF had a table of contents and a separate summary page. Our new summary page replaces both of those without losing any of the detail. You get the people on the report, your summary notes, and every area with its status and a link to its page, plus a final row for the maintenance to-dos. A reader can see in one glance which rooms need attention and jump straight there.
The bigger saving is in the areas. Our new report saves space by letting areas run one after another, so short areas share a page and the next one picks up where the last left off. It still breaks pages where it should: a heading never gets stranded at the foot of a page, and photos stay together. Cutting that white space means a lot fewer pages for the same inspection.
Areas that read like a checklist
Each area now opens with a clear heading and a status badge, then notes, the condition checklist, to-dos, and photos, in that order. To-dos print as checkboxes, so a tradesperson or owner can tick them off on paper. Reviews from the people on the report, such as a tenant or an owner, sit inside the area they’re about. Every photo is numbered and links to the full-size version in the digital report.
The PDF and the digital report now share the same structure, so a page in one is easy to find in the other.
Signatures and a maintenance list you can hand on
Signatures get a page of their own, with each person’s role and the date they signed. To-dos from every area are gathered into a maintenance appendix at the back, grouped by area and printed as checkboxes, ready to send to a tradesperson.
Customize your report and see it as you go
The brand settings page has been rebuilt as Customize reports, and it’s one of our favorite parts of this update. Add your brand details (name, logo, color, phone, and email), pick your cover style, and choose whether the PDF ends with the maintenance appendix. A live preview of the PDF cover and the digital report sits right beside the form and updates as you go, so you see exactly what your clients will get.
