FAQ

Straight answers about money.

Do our clients pay anything?
No. Using defects.sg is free for your clients, now and later: searching, logging defects and keeping their record. Renovation firms pay per project, and other businesses pay for the tooling.
Can we pay to improve our grade or appear higher?
No. A grade can only be computed from the record, and a firm or renovator cannot buy a position, a badge or a slot at any price. Search returns matches to what you typed, in no sponsored order. The one paid placement on this site, a labelled seat in the defect-checker list, sits outside the registry, and checkers carry no grade.
How would you measure a defect checker?
Coverage against the median for the same property type and size, the share of your findings that were accepted, what the client found themselves in the 30 days after your report, and how often clients appoint you again. Coverage and acceptance are always shown together, and shown to you alone. We never publish a checker grade, ranking or league table.
What can a defect checker do in the app?
Add defects and photos on the unit you were appointed to, for as long as your appointment runs. You can take back your own draft before the list is sent. After that you can’t delete anything, accept a fix, or send the list. Those stay with the client, which is why the defects you log can be trusted.
What happens if we stop paying?
There is nothing to cancel: you are billed for the inspections you did, in arrears, and a paid list placement ends with its term. Your measures were never published, so there is nothing to take down. The defect record on projects you inspected belongs to the client and stays with them either way.
Who can see a client’s address?
Only their appointed renovator or defect checker, while the project is running. Never public, and never on anything a firm can print.
Do you sell our data?
No. We don’t sell contact lists, and we never pass a client’s enquiry to a renovation firm.
How do we pay?
By bank transfer or PayNow, against our invoice. No card required and nothing on standing instruction.
