    1. During the final walkthrough, the Parties will jointly identify any incomplete or deficient items ("Punch List Items").
    2. The Contractor will document the condition of the completed work at the final walkthrough through photographs and/or video. This documentation serves as the baseline condition for warranty coverage.
    3. Punch List Items must be identified during the walkthrough or within three (3) business days of the Contractor's notice of substantial completion, whichever occurs first.
    4. The Contractor will complete Punch List Items within a reasonable timeframe, typically fourteen (14) days, weather and material availability permitting.
    5. Minor Punch List Items do not constitute grounds for withholding final payment.
    6. Items reported after the Punch List deadline may be addressed under warranty terms or as additional billable work at the Contractor's discretion.
  3. Job Completion Sign-Off:
    1. The Client agrees to sign the Job Completion Sign-Off document within three (3) business days of the final walkthrough, or within three (3) business days of the completion of Punch List Items if applicable.

  4. Warranty Commencement:
    1. The two (2) year workmanship warranty begins on the date of the final walkthrough (or completion of Punch List Items, whichever is later), regardless of when the Job Completion Sign-Off is signed.
    2. The condition of the work as documented at the final walkthrough serves as the baseline for warranty claims. Damage or defects not present in this documentation, or that are inconsistent with normal workmanship issues, may be excluded from warranty coverage.
  5. Final Lien Waiver:
    1. Upon receipt and clearance of final payment, the Contractor will provide the Client with an Unconditional Waiver and Release on Final Payment.
    2. This waiver confirms that all lien rights have been released and that the Contractor has paid or will pay all subcontractors and material suppliers.
