A punch list is a document of remaining work items, defects, and corrections that must be completed before a construction or installation project is considered finished.
Definition
A punch list records outstanding work, defects, or corrections identified near the end of a construction or installation project. Each item can be assigned, tracked, and reviewed against the project requirements.
Why It Matters for Your Business
Unresolved items can delay acceptance or payment, depending on the contract. A clear owner, due date, location, and evidence of completion help the project team coordinate the remaining work.
