DBC Pre Job Walk Checklist

This pre job walk checklist helps construction and remodeling teams prepare before work begins at a client's home. Use it to review the job binder, project scope and schedule, introduce the crew, and verify client contact details. Capture security and access information such as alarms, door or gate codes, keys, and preferred entry points. Plan daily operations including parking, foot traffic paths, surface protection, bathroom access, material storage, dumpsters, cleanup areas, and site signage. Gather site data on electrical panels, water shut-offs, attic access, framing direction, structural walls, and potential engineering needs. Record floor conditions and any existing damage, note casing, baseboard, or molding replacements, and document concerns with photos. Conclude with a client review, align on next steps, explain change order and sign-off processes, and confirm timelines and final payments.
