How long should I keep construction daily reports?
TL;DR: Retain daily construction reports for a minimum of 7 years. Mechanics lien enforcement periods vary by state (6 months to 6 years). Construction defect statutes of limitations can extend 10+ years. Digital daily reports (like Voice Log Pro) are stored indefinitely in the cloud with timestamps.
