Construction defects
Without documentation, you’re often left to deal with the problems yourself
With POCASIO, you can immediately document construction defects with photos, notes, and the date. All defects are assigned to the responsible companies—and exported as a defect report in PDF format with the click of a button. This way, you place the responsibility where it belongs.
In the end, unresolved issues will only cost you money
Defects occur on almost every construction site—from crooked windows to poorly finished joints. However, many homeowners document these defects incompletely or not at all. Without clear evidence, it becomes difficult to hold contractors accountable. In the end, you’re left footing the bill or have to fight your way through endless discussions.
Defects Go Unnoticed
Minor defects are often overlooked or not documented. It is then nearly impossible to prove later that the defect was present from the beginning. Or the defect may even be forgotten.
No clear classification
Without documentation, you won’t know which company is responsible for which construction defect or exactly when it occurred. This makes it harder to determine who is at fault and delays the repair.
Missing Evidence
If a dispute arises, you won’t have solid evidence without complete records. Without proof, construction defects often remain your problem and cost you money—not the company’s.So you can thoroughly document defects and successfully enforce your rights
With POCASIO’s defect tracking feature, you have all construction defects under control. You can document issues right away with photos, notes, and dates, assign them to the responsible companies, and track their status at any time. If needed, you can create a defect report as a PDF with a single click and send it directly to the relevant company—ensuring your claims are consistently enforced.

As soon as you notice a defect, you can document it directly in POCASIO: include a title, description, photos, the affected trade, and a deadline for rectification.
