Inspections

An Inspection captures a Firewise assessment for one or more parcels in your community. Each inspection groups findings (defensible-space issues, hazardous fuels, structural concerns) that feed into your Firewise reaccreditation packet.

Schedule and track inspections with a visual kanban workflow, list view, or calendar.

Navigate to Inspections in the sidebar to access this page.

Starting a new inspection

Click New Inspection to begin. You’ll pick the inspection type (community-wide, single-parcel, or follow-up), the inspector, and the date range.

Working an inspection

The detail page is your workspace during and after the field visit. The Findings section is where you log each defensible-space issue with severity, photos, and the affected parcel.

What feeds where

• Findings become Required Actions assigned to the parcel’s owner (or whoever you target).
• Required Actions roll into Action Plans — the multi-year community workplan you submit to Firewise USA®.
• Inspection PDFs are attachments on the parcel and on each owner’s record (when ownership tracking is enabled).

The sub-pages in this section cover inspection types, kanban/list/calendar views, inspector assignment, overdue findings, and owner-initiated requests in detail.
