The Rebuilt standard
The Rebuilt File.
Every roof we touch is designed around documentation you can understand and keep. Inspection photos, written scope, project updates, cleanup proof, and warranty notes — in one branded record. You keep it whether or not you hire Rebuilt.

Who uses it
One document, three audiences.
The Rebuilt File is built for the homeowner first — and the people the homeowner shares it with second.
For homeowners
The roof is one of the largest exterior assets on the property. The Rebuilt File is your record of what was inspected, what was found, what was decided, and what was installed — written so you can read it without a contractor sitting next to you.
For real estate agents
Listing or buying, you get a clean, photo-backed condition record you can hand to a client or share with the other side of the transaction. No more vague verbal assessments scribbled on the back of an inspection report.
For insurance agents
When damage documentation matters, the Rebuilt File is the photo-and-scope record your homeowner needs in hand. Rebuilt documents the damage; the homeowner takes the documentation to the carrier.
Honest framing
The Rebuilt File is the brand for how Rebuilt documents inspections and projects. It is designed to include the contents shown in the sample above — exact deliverables vary by job, and contents may be shared as a printed packet, a digital folder, or a combination, depending on what makes sense for your project. The Rebuilt team confirms the format with you at scope sign-off.
Visual proof
Visual proof from the ground up.
Drone and jobsite photos help homeowners see condition, progress, and finished work. Visual documentation supports trust, communication, and confidence — and helps create better project records for homeowners, realtors, insurance agents, and property managers.
Before photos help document what we found
Roof-level photos of the existing condition — slope by slope, flashing by flashing. The record of the starting point.
Progress photos help explain what changed
Mid-build photos and crew notes show what was done, when, and how. Fewer surprise questions during and after the work.
Final photos help confirm the work was completed
Closeout photos document the finished roof, cleanup, and warranty paperwork. You see the result, organized for you to keep.
When appropriate, aerial drone footage provides a clear roof-level view that helps homeowners and partners understand what we’re documenting. Drone capture is a tool for clearer communication — not a guarantee, a promotion, or a substitute for ground inspection.
