Digital construction documentation for general contractors
Project documentation, defect management and acceptance – across all trades.
General contractors carry progress, quality and evidence to the client. deep.rent structures project reports, defects and handovers: trades document consistently, status reports without media breaks.
GC projects rarely fail on technique – often on documentation
When trades document differently, the overall view of defects and progress is lost. Uniform templates unburden project leads.
Central site reports strengthen position at acceptance and variations. deep.rent replaces one-off formats with guided capture – media per building part and trade.

Construction documentation for general contractors
General contractors need construction documentation that maps defect management and progress evidence across all trades. Uniform site reports and handover protocols keep project status visible – without manual copy-paste.
Acceptance and site control only work when defects and media were captured during construction. Structured templates create comparability across trades and phases.
