Good contractors plan for them. Expect a final walkthrough at substantial completion with a dated punch list, then a scheduled return—often within 7–14 days—to address items like touch-up grading, irrigation tweaks, or swapped plants. Many Utah firms add a 30–90 day follow-up to adjust for settling and seasonal irrigation changes. Send one consolidated list by email (with photos) and confirm target dates in writing. Hold a small retainage until the list is closed. This light structure keeps minor items from dragging on and gives you a clean finish.
