Most of what goes wrong on a construction project was decided before anyone noticed: a subcontractor started work before anyone checked their insurance, the site diary was written up from memory a week later, the weekly safety walk found the same missing edge protection three times, and the health and safety file was still being assembled after the client moved in. CheckFlow’s construction templates turn each of those routines into a checklist with a named owner, a due date and a dated record of what was checked and who signed it off.
The templates follow a project from before work starts to handover: the pre-construction meeting and subcontractor prequalification; the daily report and the site safety inspection while work is under way; and the punch list and project closeout at the end. Where UK and US rules differ, such as CDM 2015 and OSHA’s construction standards in 29 CFR 1926, the first task asks which rules apply and shows the matching steps. For inducting people on to site, use the Construction Site Induction Checklist.
All six construction templates, one line each. Every template page explains the process behind it, lists every phase and task, and links to a live example you can open without signing up.
A daily report or an inspection written up days later is the weakest evidence in a dispute or an investigation. Each template asks for the record at the time: who was on site, what was checked, what was found, with photos and files attached to the task, and the name and time of whoever completed it.
Approving a subcontractor, confirming the start on site, accepting a punch list and confirming completion are approval steps: the person named on the first task makes the decision, and the steps that depend on it cannot be completed until they do.
Daily reports and weekly inspections can run on a recurring schedule, so each site gets its checklist on the right day, and missed or overdue ones show up in the Reports Grid instead of in the next audit.
Describe the process in a sentence and the AI checklist generator drafts the phases and tasks for you.
Six, in three groups. Before work starts: the pre-construction meeting and subcontractor prequalification. On site: the daily report and the site safety inspection. Completion and handover: the punch list and project closeout. Site inductions have their own Construction Site Induction Checklist.
Yes. Where the law differs, the first task asks which rules apply: in the UK the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, and in the US OSHA’s construction standards in 29 CFR 1926. Your answer shows the matching legal steps and notes and hides the others. For other countries, choose “Other” and add your own requirements to the template before you run it.
The punch list, called snagging in the UK, is the list of incomplete or defective items found when the client walks the building, and the cycle of fixing and verifying them. Closeout is everything around handover: the punch list closed, commissioning records, manuals, as-built drawings, warranties, the health and safety file, completion, demobilisation and the final account.
Yes. CheckFlow runs in the browser, so a site manager can fill in a daily report or an inspection on a phone or tablet, attach photos to the task they relate to and complete each step as it is done. It needs a connection to save, and everyone else on the project sees the progress in real time.
Yes. Each template is a starting point: copy it, then rename steps, add your own checks and fields, change who approves what and adjust the due dates in the template designer. Checklists already running keep the version they started from.
