Job site photos without the camera roll mess

"Can everyone send me the photos from that job?" They come in by text, half are missing, and nobody knows which house is which.
Job photos are your proof: for the customer, the insurance company and you.
What to shoot
- Before: the whole area, then close-ups of the problem.
- During: anything that will be covered up, like decking, flashing or wiring.
- After: the same spots as Before, from the same angle.
Label it right away
Every photo needs the date, the address and the phase (Before, During or After). One tap when you shoot it. An afternoon if you do it later.
Keep it off personal phones
Photos on crew phones fill their storage and leave with them. Send every photo straight to one place the whole company can see, filed under the job.
How JobChalk does it
Your crew takes photos inside the job. Each one gets Before, During or After in one tap, with the date, time and address printed on it. Photos go straight to the job online, not to anyone's camera roll.
Stop chasing your crew for job photos
Your crew's phone camera wasn't built for a job site
A date stamp on a photo isn't proof. A verify link is.
