Landscaping – Pre-Work Inspection Checklist for Home Builder
This checklist ensures the site is prepared for landscaping work by verifying plans, clearing the yard of debris, and confirming that foundational elements like swales, berms, and buried lines are in place. It also ensures temporary construction items, such as power poles, have been removed, and driveways and walkways remain undamaged. Completing these steps ensures landscaping can proceed efficiently and align with project specifications.
