Post-installation quality control is a systematic process where the installer and owner verify the finished work. The checklist includes checking for loose floor boards or carpet seams, ensuring that perimeter expansion gaps meet specifications, and confirming that transitions and molding are flush. Additionally, the inspection verifies that the finished floor surface is free of debris, adhesives, or aesthetic defects like scratches. All functional aspects, such as doors clearing the floor and baseboards being secure, are evaluated. This final review documents that the project was completed to defined workmanship and safety expectations.
