Every DBS check, with the date it lapses
Background checks with expiry.
Part of compliance & certificates in Gaffer, which replaces carbonless pads, a filing cabinet and a scanner.
913 certificates and forms, filled on site, filed for good.
Gas Safety, EICR, Minor Works, LOLER, F-Gas, FENSA and hundreds more — trade-specific, signed on the device, emailed to the customer as a PDF and tracked to their expiry date.
Nothing is lost, nothing is illegible, and every renewal comes back to you as work.
DBS records are one of the 14 things in compliance & certificates. See the rest →
- DBS checks held per person with the check type, reference number and issuing body
- Issue and expiry dates recorded, so a lapsed check is visible rather than assumed
- A reminder lead time set per record instead of one blanket rule
- A push notification when a check is coming up for renewal
- The vetting evidence a local authority or care client asks to see
Step 04 of the job: on site
The engineer taps “On my way” and the customer gets a text with an arrival window. On site: clock in, photos, the certificate for the job — EICR, Gas Safety, whatever the trade needs — signed on the device. No signal? It syncs later.
Compliance & Certificates is where DBS records sits, and that is the step it shows up in most. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →

Are the certificates acceptable to landlords and inspectors?
They carry the fields the schemes expect, your registration numbers, the date, the engineer and a signature, and they go out as a branded PDF. Whether a scheme requires its own branded form is worth checking for your trade before you switch.
What happens when a certificate is about to expire?
It surfaces before it lapses, not after. You get the alert, and the customer can get a text with a booking link — which is how last year’s compliance turns into this year’s work.
Which plan is it on?
Every paid plan. DBS records is included for unlimited users at no extra cost — the monthly, annual and lifetime plans differ only in how you pay.
