Whether you’re managing a commercial high-rise or a 12-lot subdivision, every construction project is exposed to risk — damage, delays, disputes, and defects. When those issues arise, the first thing insurers and attorneys ask is:
📸 “Do you have photos?”
In today’s environment, insurance carriers increasingly expect high-quality, timestamped visual documentation. If you’re not capturing photo records at key build phases, you’re already behind.
At Completion Phase, we make it simple to schedule FAA-certified drone flights that document your job site with the precision insurers trust.
Why Photo Documentation Is Non-Negotiable
Construction is complex. Trades overlap. Weather shifts fast. And miscommunication happens even on the best-managed builds.
Without consistent photo evidence:
- You may lose out on legitimate claims due to lack of proof
- You risk being blamed for damage that occurred after handoff
- You open yourself to delays, legal disputes, and out-of-pocket repairs
- Your insurance premiums or claim outcomes may be impacted
By contrast, photo documentation creates a timeline of truth — a visual log that protects your team and proves compliance every step of the way.
What Insurers Are Looking For
Insurance companies don’t just want any photo — they need images that are:
- 📅 Date- and time-stamped
- 📍 Geo-tagged to the job site
- 🧱 Detailed and high-resolution
- ✅ Verifiable by a trusted third party
Drone documentation checks all the boxes — especially when captured by FAA-certified professionals who understand construction sequencing.
Phone Photos Aren’t Enough Anymore
While your site super might snap some progress shots, they often miss:
- Consistency (same angles, same frequency)
- File organization (can you find photos from 3 months ago?)
- Coverage (did they capture waterproofing before siding went up?)
- Legal protection (will the photos hold up in an insurance investigation?)
Completion Phase standardizes this process. We match you with vetted drone pilots and deliver insurance-ready photo sets to your inbox — organized, timestamped, and easy to access.
Top Insurance Scenarios Where Photos Save You
- Post-storm roof damage: Proof it was intact last week
- Trench or utility disputes: Visual record of backfill and compaction
- Waterproofing claims: Time-captured photos pre-siding
- Change orders and punchlists: Image trail to verify scope
- Theft or vandalism: Daily or weekly site conditions
