Water goes where you said it would. Show the slope, show the flow.

The photos that decide whether you get paid
Gutter work happens where the customer can't see it — that's the whole problem. The fascia rot you found at tear-off is a fair change order, but from the ground it's just a bigger invoice; the photo of crumbling wood behind the old gutter makes it an obvious yes. Cleanings are the same: the customer can't tell a cleaned gutter from a skipped one until it rains, so the before/after pair of each run is what proves the visit and renews the contract. And when 'the gutters still overflow' comes in, your dated photos of the slope and a downspout running clear separate a workmanship issue from a clogged underground drain that was never yours. Photograph what you found, what you replaced, and the water moving, and send it all as one link.
Built for gutter crews
The change order that approves itself
Rotted fascia photographed as the old gutter comes down. The customer sees what you saw, and the extra line item stops being a debate.
Cleanings the customer can see
Every run, before and after, from the ladder. Proof of work for a service nobody can verify from the ground.
Callback defense, dated
Slope, sealed miters, and a flowing downspout on the day you finished. When water shows up somewhere later, your record shows what you left.
Captions from the ladder
'North run, third hanger pulled loose, fascia soft' — said up there, saved with the photo, readable in the quote.
The same pass on every house
Runs, corners, downspouts, discharge — a photo checklist that reads the same whichever crew is on the ladder.
One link to the customer
Inspection findings, finished work, flow test — a browser gallery, no app, no login. Quotes close faster when they can see it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Photograph the rot the moment the old gutter comes off — wide shot to place it, close-up to show it. A customer who can see crumbled wood approves the repair; one reading a line item calls around for second opinions.
Before/after pairs of each run plus a downspout flushing clear. It takes seconds from the ladder and proves the visit nobody can check from the ground.
Your completion photos answer it: slope set, seams sealed, downspouts flowing on the day you left. If the problem is leaves two months later or a clogged underground drain, the record says so.
Yes — photograph anything you find and flag it to the customer with the gallery. Lifted shingles or failed flashing spotted from the ladder often becomes your next job.
Photos organize themselves by job as they're taken and upload on their own — nothing to file at the end of the day. If you're out of coverage, they queue and sync later.
