Sometimes I waste to much time trying to describe problem or issue find in home.
It is not that hard. Just write in simple easy to understand terms. Write in the first person and in a conversations style. In other words, write like you are talking to someone. Richard said it very well; Keep it simple!
You don't need to fill the report with a bunch of verbiage that describes the attributes or what the procedures for repairing might entail. Just report what you see and what needs to be done.
Example: The hall bathroom GFCI is not working properly, it did not trip when I tested it. You should have an electrician repair or replace it as needed. Simple as can be, yet it tells the location, what is wrong and what needs to be done.
