Who this template is for

Daily Site Report is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in construction.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 25 questions across 2 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 12 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

How is this different from a site handover report?

Handover happens once, when a site or building passes to someone else. This is written every working day and records labour, progress and disruption.

Does it need to be signed?

Naming the reporter is usually enough day to day. Save signatures for handover and completion, where they carry contractual weight.

Can two supervisors both file one?

Better not to. Agree one reporter per job number per day, or delay claims rest on two versions of the same afternoon.

Is a recorded delay automatically claimable?

No. That depends on your contract and notice provisions. The diary gives the commercial team accurate dated facts to work from.

Is the Daily Site Report template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Daily Site Report on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.

What does the Daily Site Report template ask for?

It asks 25 questions across 2 pages, 12 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.

Can I edit the Daily Site Report form after copying it?

Yes — the copy is entirely yours. Change wording, add or remove questions, switch between the classic and card layouts, restyle it to match your brand, and set who gets notified on each submission.
