Pre-Service Inspection
Documented and agreed upon before any work begins.
Before we touch a pressure washer, we walk the work area with you and document everything we see. Pre-existing damage gets photographed and recorded. Add-on requests get listed and quoted. You sign off, we get to work — and there are no surprises on either side when we're done.
Why we do this: Transparency is a core operating standard at Curb Appeal Co. This inspection record protects you (you have a documented before-state) and protects us (we're not on the hook for damage that was already there).
What we document
- Surface condition — cracks, spalling, pitting, or worn areas in concrete and asphalt
- Stains we may not fully remove — deep oil, rust, or organic staining we'll do our best on but cannot guarantee
- Adjacent damage — chipped paint, loose siding or trim, damaged window screens, cracked glass, loose mortar
- Fixtures & landscaping — light fixtures, outlets, hose bibs, mulch beds, fragile plantings near the work area
- Photos — clear before-photos of every documented item
- Add-on requests — anything additional you'd like us to address while we're on site
The inspection form
Below is a preview of the form we fill out together on-site. We'll complete it on a tablet during the walkthrough, and a copy is sent to you and kept in our records.
Preview: this form is shown for transparency. The fields aren't fillable here — they're completed in person during the on-site walkthrough.
What happens during the inspection
- We walk the work area together and complete the form above.
- You and Curb Appeal Co. both receive a copy of the completed inspection record.
- If we documented add-on requests, you'll get pricing on them before any extra work starts.
- We perform the agreed-upon service.
- After the job, we'll share after-photos so you can see the result against the documented before-state.
