Closeout Photo Checklist

Use when hidden work needs photos before ceiling/walls/insulation cover it.

What this covers

Foreman asks for closeout photos or hidden work is about to disappear.

How to use this playbook

  1. Prove location, condition, and what gets hidden.
  2. Wide context photo.
  3. Close photos of joints/supports/access/labels/flex/damage.
  4. Tape/tag when size/location matters.
  5. Group by room/system.
  6. Send with a clear note.

Check

  • Wide location photo
  • Close-up of issue
  • Label/tag/drawing reference
  • Punch/list note

Warnings

  • Do not treat a checklist as approval.
  • Do not skip foreman/PM direction when scope, safety, cost, or inspection is affected.

Stop and ask

  • Do these photos show enough location, access, joints, supports, labels, and open issues before this gets covered?
