Claims & Insurance
Final inspection
A walkthrough of the completed repair work, usually done by the adjuster or a supervisor, before the claim is closed. The final inspection confirms that the scope in the estimate was performed, that the materials match the estimate, and that the work meets the quality required by the claim. Any variance discovered at final inspection is resolved with a supplement or a holdback release before the last payment is made.
