Substantial Completion Walk-Through Clause Samples
The Substantial Completion Walk-Through clause establishes the process by which the parties jointly inspect the project to determine if it has reached substantial completion. During this walk-through, the owner and contractor review the work to identify any remaining items that need to be finished or corrected, often resulting in a punch list of outstanding tasks. This clause ensures that both parties agree on the project's readiness for occupancy or use, clarifies responsibilities for final completion, and helps prevent disputes over the project's status at the end of construction.
