In order to prevent frivolous allegations of ‘damage’ whilst on site, we are reminding you of the importance of taking photos (or videos) of ‘before’ and ‘after’ when you are on a job. This can be vitally important to defend the ‘You’ve damaged my wall’ allegation that is coming to you soon. A simple video of the work site before could help protect against any future allegations.
This is also important when you are doing any work near cars, even if they are some distance from the drop zone. A video can take seconds to record and will show the position of any vehicles. It is also really important if you spot anything damaged, such as a car or greenhouse – take a video before you start any work to prove the damage is not down to you.
Photos when you finish a job are also as important for marketing purposes. If you leave a site spotless, it’s great to capture this and helps protects you against any later claims.
If you do accidentally damage something – photograph it, so you can be sure that the repair bill is in proportion to the damage caused. Too often that broken flowerpot becomes a smashed patio door, which coincidentally needs replacing anyway!
Video really will help Kill the Fraud Star.
