GableForge is a home inspection report app built for working in the field. Walk the property, rate each component, take photos, write your notes, and give your client a clean, branded PDF report before you leave the driveway. It works fully offline, with no account or sign-up.
RATE EVERY ITEM AT A GLANCE
Each item gets a color-coded condition:
• Good: serviceable, no action needed
• Marginal: monitor or maintain
• Defective: needs repair
• Not Inspected: inaccessible or not evaluated
• Not Present: component not installed
Add observations, a recommendation, and a safety-concern flag to any item. A live progress bar shows how much of the house is rated.
MOVE FAST ON SITE
• Previous / Next buttons step through every item in order, so you never have to go back to the list
• "Mark remaining as Good" finishes an area in one tap
• Add photos from the camera, or pick several from your gallery at once, with captions
• Insert saved comments from a searchable library of common electrical, plumbing, roof, HVAC, structure and safety findings
• Reorder, rename and add areas and items to fit any property
START FROM A TEMPLATE
Built-in templates for a Standard Home Inspection, 4-Point Inspection, Condo / Townhouse, New Construction / Final Walkthrough, and Rental Move-In / Move-Out. You can also start blank, or save any inspection's layout as your own template.
PROFESSIONAL PDF REPORTS
One tap builds a complete report:
• Branded cover page with your logo, company details and a property photo
• Property, client and inspection conditions
• Findings summary with rating counts
• Full item-by-item findings with photos
• Deficiency summary of every Marginal and Defective item
• Certification page with your on-screen signature
Email it straight to your client with the report attached and your signature filled in, or share, save, or open it in any PDF viewer.
CLIENTS AND SCHEDULE
• A saved customer list with contact details, agent and notes, plus each client's inspection history
• Pick a saved customer to fill in a new inspection automatically
• Search inspections by address, client, agent, phone or email
• "Pick up where you left off" card and Today / Tomorrow tags on upcoming jobs
• Optional reminders the evening before an inspection, and when a report has been left unfinished

MADE FOR
Home inspectors, 4-point and insurance inspectors, real estate investors, property managers, landlords doing move-in / move-out checks, and contractors documenting a walkthrough.
GableForge reports record the visible condition of a property at the time of inspection. The app does not decide whether a property complies with any building code, standard of practice or licensing requirement. Those decisions remain with the inspector.
