What is a Draw Inspection ?
A Draw Inspection is a specialized evaluation performed during the construction or renovation process — typically required by lenders before releasing the next portion of project funds, known as a “draw.” These inspections verify that the percentage of work completed accurately reflects the stage of construction outlined in the loan agreement or builder’s schedule.
Without an accurate draw inspection, lenders risk releasing funds prematurely, and builders may face project delays or funding disputes. Upchurch Inspection provides detailed, photo-documented reports for every phase, giving lenders, builders, and property owners a clear, verified record of construction progress.
What is included in a Draw Inspection?
Why Draw Inspections Matter
Draw inspections play a crucial role in keeping construction projects on schedule, on budget, and properly funded. For lenders, they provide assurance that money is being released only for work that has actually been completed. For builders and property owners, they create a clear, third-party record of progress that can help prevent disputes and misunderstandings.
By verifying completion stages and providing photographic evidence, draw inspections protect everyone involved in the construction process. They help ensure accountability, promote transparency, and keep projects moving forward smoothly — from groundbreaking to final completion.
What You’ll Receive After Draw Inspection
After each draw inspection, you’ll receive a clear, organized report with everything your lender or project manager needs to verify progress and approve the next draw.
Your report includes:
A detailed photo log showing each area of work completed
Progress verification for major construction phases
Notes and comments on visible conditions, materials on site, and any delays or safety issues observed
Completion percentage summaries for lender reference
Fast digital delivery, typically within 24 hours of the site visit
Each report is designed to be simple to review, lender-friendly, and formatted to meet common construction loan requirements — helping your project stay on track without unnecessary delays.
