Exterior QA Inspections for Asons
Good Afternoon,
I would like to thank everyone for their hard work this past month with our exterior QA inspections, we are very pleased with everyone’s work.
We wanted to send out a few friendly reminders to everyone to make sure your crews are taking photos of lock boxes and doors. If there is not a lock box present; crews still need to take photos of the door where it should be. We have had a number of inspections rejected from the client the past couple of rounds due to missing photos.
Below are the requirements for the inspections for everyone to review:
