Every hotel renovation team knows the drill: a dresser arrives scratched, a corridor wall gets dinged, or lamps disappear mid-install. When the damage or loss is discovered late, the question becomes: Who’s responsible?
Installers often get blamed for damage that was already there. Trades point fingers at each other. And missing OS&E items stall room turnovers. Without clear documentation, accountability disappears—the result is schedule delays, skyrocketing costs, and lost revenue nights.
The Pain of Damage Disputes
- Unclear Responsibility: Installers are blamed for pre-existing damage.
- Unlogged Issues: Dings and scratches go undocumented until final walkthroughs.
- Lost Assets: Small OS&E items vanish, causing shortages.
