Plumbing Top-Out Checklist Template
A plumbing top-out checklist helps crews verify fixtures, trim, shutoffs, traps, supplies, drains, vents, tests, labels, and punch-list items before final walkthrough or customer handoff.
Use this template for remodel closeouts, new construction plumbing, fixture trim, commercial top-out, final testing, punch lists, and project handoffs.

What weak templates miss

No punch owner
Small missing parts or adjustments can delay payment when nobody owns them.
Testing is assumed
