Your account will come pre-loaded with a series of defect conditions that easily identify the reason of the negative marking of an item that was inspected.
Here we have a list of the defaults and a brief description why the defect would be issued.
Cleaning Conditions
Satisfactory
When an item is good and well, it is satisfactory 👍. This is the only positive condition.
Buildup
This defect is given when an item is seen to be lacking routine cleaning, it could be a combination of tasks that failed to reach a satisfactory condition.
Corners and Details
In some cases, incomplete cleaning or an item would not yield a satisfactory result. For example, a chair top might have been cleaned, but its legs were neglected.
Dust
Accumulation of particles that from the air has settled on a surface which indicates a lack of dry mopping/dusting of the item.
Litter
Suspect items that usually would not belong with the item. This defect is usually given if it is noticeable that litter has accumulated for some time, and not given if the litter is minimal.
Polish
Should a surface be intended to have a shine, bright, stainless result, then this defect is presented. Usual suspects would be brass, marble, and tiles.
Project / Buildup
When it is understood that the defect can not be resolved by routine cleaning alone, then this defect is given. This defect is a marker to allow the resolution to escalate to use a different process, or specialist to resolve the issue.
Residue
This defect is given if a noticeable substance that doesn't belong is on a surface. A coffee or oil stain for example. The usual resolution would be the use of more elbow grease. 💪
Spot Clean
In some instances, an item would be mostly clean, but just needs a small amount of work. Its single defect is one of many but not too great to identify on its own.
Streaks
When a surface has been cleaned, but the process has left visible streaks this could result in the cleaning process could be ineffective for a satisfactory condition.
Unstocked Dispenser
Should a unit that dispenses a product, such a soap or paper towels be empty, then it's defect could affect the sanitary condition or operation of the room.
Vacuum
Unlike dust, when a fabric surface accumulates loose particles then it would be necessary to vacuum clean the surface.

Leaking
There is liquid coming from the item which appears to not be a normal function.
