Hood cleaning before and after photo report
Before and after photos are strongest when they are grouped by area, captioned in plain language, and tied to the service result.
Pair the photos
A before image should connect to the matching after image when possible, instead of sitting in a long unstructured gallery.
Caption the area
Name the hood, filter bank, duct access, fan base, or grease path so the customer knows what they are seeing.
Explain missing photos
If before photos, after photos, or access photos are missing, the report should say why rather than implying everything was captured.

Common questions
Practical questions
What should a Hood cleaning before and after photo report include?
It should include Before photo by area, After photo by area, Short customer-facing caption, Service result tied to the photos, and a clear saved record for the customer.
Should photos and open items stay in the same report?
Yes. Photos, completed work, blocked access, and next actions should stay in one customer-readable report so the restaurant does not have to piece together separate messages.
How does the builder help with this?
The builder turns the same structure into a customer-ready report link and PDF copy after the service result is selected.
Example wording
Photos are grouped by kitchen exhaust area so the customer can see the before condition, the after result, and any access or condition issue that still needs attention.
