Define what complete means for the project
Ask that the proposal identify the finished boundaries and the restoration included beyond the main work area. Clarify any tasks assigned to you. That makes the final walkthrough easier to assess against an agreed scope.
Request product and care information
Ask what guidance will be provided for the installed materials or planting. Care depends on the selected products and conditions, so a general article should not replace the instructions for your project. Keep relevant documents together.
Walk the areas used for access
Review the construction route as well as the finished feature. Discuss the restoration included in the scope and identify any open item. Refer to starting photographs when they help explain the area being discussed.
Record follow-up items clearly
Write down what remains to be done, the responsible contact and the next step. Keep that list distinct from routine owner maintenance. Do not assume an informal comment establishes a new warranty or an additional included service.
Know whom to contact later
Save the service contact and relevant product details. If something changes after completion, describe what you observe and provide useful photographs so the team can discuss the appropriate response.
