# Foundation repair sales software for the inspection

You need foundation repair sales software when the first visit is an inspection and an engineer comes later. Knockdesk is field sales software for that long decision. It does not do engineering, financing, or pier design.

## How foundation crews sell

A foundation repair canvassing app books the inspection, then holds the deal while the engineer visit and the homeowner's decision take time. The ticket is high. The log has to survive the wait.

**Inspection.** The first appointment is an outcome and a follow-up.

**Engineer later.** The next visit is the same deal. Knockdesk does not send the engineer.

**Long decision.** The pin stays owned so a second rep does not restart the story.

## Problems managers run into

The engineer went out and the original inspection is gone, so the high-ticket decision has no first knock.

**Two visits, no chain.** Inspection and engineer day look like unrelated pins.

**Financing story.** A payment plan was discussed and the desk does not finance it, and nobody logged the conversation.

**Pier sketch.** The design is a human task that never got a visit attached.

**Paid at the inspection.** Nothing is repaired and the commission posted.

## How Knockdesk is set up for this crew

Name outcomes for inspection set, inspection sat, engineer scheduled, and sold. A manager names the stages. Not a preset. Territory, turf, one vendor, CSV or Excel import. Full desk is on the pricing page. A free trial is not open.

| Piece | What the manager does |
| --- | --- |
| Outcomes | Engineer scheduled is a follow-up. It is not an engineering work order inside Knockdesk. |
| Territory and turf | Cut inspection turf the canvass crew can book. |
| Vendor | One repair vendor. Confirmation uses that saved rate when you decide the sale is real. |
| No design | Piers, financing, and engineering stay outside the product. |
| Full desk | Full desk is on the pricing page. |

## Coach the inspection appointment

Record with consent or skip. The outcome remains. Paste into Coach. Six steps are scored. Engineering is not a seventh.

1. Ask what they have seen in doors, cracks, or floors. Do not diagnose a pier.
2. Book the inspection and write who will attend.
3. Set the engineer follow-up on the same deal when that is the next step.
4. Recap that financing and design are the company's process, and the visit is what Knockdesk holds.

## Survivor for a long decision

Survivor fits a long decision: reps stay in while their inspections keep moving, under rules you set. An admin or sales manager makes it live. Onboarding does not block knocks. Eligibility can require finished onboarding.

**Stay in.** An inspection that reached the engineer visit, if that is the rule you wrote.

**Not a design race.** Nobody wins for a pier sketch.

**Formats.** Sprint, Marathon, Head to head, Team battle, Custom Team Challenge, Territory War, Achievement race, and Bracket are the others. Territory War is admin-only.

## Commissions, vendors, and a sale that waits

Confirm when the repair is actually sold, not when the inspection was booked. The rate is the vendor rate, then the organization default. Do not invent a financing fee.

| Job | What Knockdesk does |
| --- | --- |
| Vendor rate | Confirmation uses the rate saved on that vendor. |
| Organization default | Used only if the vendor rate is missing. |
| Empty | If neither rate exists, the amount stays empty. |
| Void | A reversal is the existing amount times negative one. |
| Dispute | The line holds until confirm or void. |

## Compliance for an inspection crew

This is general information, not legal advice. The walkthrough is how the visit is logged.

**Engineer.** Scheduling them is your process. The follow-up is the log.

**Financing.** Knockdesk does not offer it. Do not log a fake approval.

**Recording.** Ask before the file. Skip saves the inspection outcome.

**Do Not Contact.** Off the list and out of coverage.

## FAQ

### What is foundation repair sales software here?

It logs the inspection appointment and the later engineer visit on one deal. Knockdesk is field sales software. It does not engineer, finance, or design piers.

A foundation repair canvassing app books that inspection and keeps the knock through the long decision.

### Does the desk send the engineer?

No. You schedule that visit. Knockdesk holds the follow-up.

### When should the commission confirm?

When the repair is sold, at a saved rate. An inspection by itself is not a rate the product invents.
