What should a service visit report include?

A service visit report should record the customer, site and visit type, the equipment covered with serial numbers, the checks carried out and their results, any readings, faults found and work done, parts used, what is still outstanding with a recommended next action, time on site, and the engineer's and customer's signatures.

Last updated . Facts checked on 30 September 2026 against PUWER 1998, regulation 5 (Maintenance).

Who uses it

Service and maintenance engineers, at the end of each planned maintenance visit or reactive call-out.

When

Before leaving site on every visit, so the customer and the office see the same record of what was done.

From the field

How do you get the most from a service visit report?

01

Check cover before touching anything

Confirm whether the visit falls under warranty, a service agreement or is chargeable before starting. Working it out from an old order afterwards rarely goes your way.

02

Record serials, not just models

"Replaced an inverter" helps nobody next year. The serial of the unit removed and the one fitted is what lets the next engineer trace the history.

03

Write outstanding work as an action

"Needs looking at" gets forgotten. "Order comms board for charger 4, return within 10 working days" gets booked.

04

Leave with a signature or a reason

If nobody is available to sign, note who you reported to and when. An unsigned report with no explanation invites a dispute over whether you attended.

Frequently asked questions

What do people ask about the service visit report?

Ask our team →

Is this service visit report template free?

+

Yes. Use the fields on this page as a paper form, in a spreadsheet, or set them up in Integrio, where each report is saved against the customer's installed equipment and builds its service history.

Is a maintenance report the same as a service visit report?

+

In practice, yes. Both record one visit: what was checked, found and done. This template covers planned maintenance and reactive call-outs, with the visit type field deciding which follow-up questions appear.

Do we have to keep maintenance records?

+

It depends on the equipment and who is responsible for it. Under PUWER 1998, regulation 5, employers must keep work equipment in efficient working order and good repair, and where machinery has a maintenance log, that log must be kept up to date. Your service contract may set further record requirements.

Source: PUWER 1998, regulation 5 (Maintenance)

How often should solar PV systems be serviced?

+

MCS MIS 3002 gives an advisory maintenance schedule for solar PV: visual checks by the customer, an intermediate maintenance visit, and a full maintenance visit with more involved tests needing specialist equipment. How often depends on system size, the building's use and occupancy, roof access, and what the customer or their insurer requires.

Source: MCS MIS 3002: The Solar PV Installation Standard, issue 6.0

Why get the customer to sign a service report?

+

It confirms you attended and what you told them. In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, a business supplying a service has an implied duty to carry it out with reasonable care and skill, and a signed, dated report is part of how you show what was done. This is not legal advice.

Source: Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982, section 13

How do I use this template in Integrio?

+

Build the report in the Integrio Form Builder on the Office User plan (£65 per user per month) and book visits from helpdesk tickets. Engineers fill it in on the mobile app on the Field Service User plan (£15), with the QR scanner to pick the equipment and offline capture where there is no signal.
