Daily Log

A written record kept by the superintendent documenting work performed, crew counts, deliveries, weather, visitors, and issues each day.

In the Field

Daily logs are your legal protection in a dispute. Courts treat them as contemporaneous evidence. Log delays, incomplete drawings, material shortages, and third-party impacts — not just what you built. Be factual, not emotional.

Rule of Thumb

Log every day, even if it's just 'no work performed due to rain.' Gaps in daily logs look like fabrication in litigation.
