FRP wall panelsFRP wall panels final inspection checklist
FRP wall panels final inspection is where the punch list is either short or expensive. This checklist walks the finished work the way an owner or AHJ will see it: devices on, systems running, everything labeled. Each item gets the photo that closes it instead of reopening it. Work is commonly verified against the applicable building code, manufacturer's published instructions. Confirm the edition your authority having jurisdiction has adopted.

Who runs it
The panel installer with the GC's superintendent, walking the finished walls before the space is put into service.
When in the schedule
After panels, trims and sealant are complete, before the kitchen or wet area is put into service and cleaned down.
The checklist
Every item, and the photo that proves it
The photo count on each row is what RTI would require before the item can be submitted. Copy the list as is, or load it into RTI and let the gate enforce it.
Bond and flatness
- 2 photos
Panels fully bonded and flat
Full adhesive contact with no bubbles or lifting, panels flat and tight to the wall, seams aligned and even across the run.
Trims and joints sealed
- 2 photos
Division bars, trims and top edge sealed
Trims and division bars set with continuous sealant, top and bottom edges sealed, joints closed so wash water can not get behind the panels.
Penetrations
- 1 photo
Cutouts clean and sealed at outlets and pipes
Cutouts tight and centered, plates and escutcheons covering the edge, sealant closing the gap at every penetration.
What usually sends this back
The failures are almost always the evidence, not the work
- Adhesive coverage short of full contact, so panels bubble and lifting starts at the corners the first time the wall is washed down.
- Division bars and trims dry-set with no sealant, so wash water runs behind the panels at every joint.
- Cutouts around outlets and pipes left oversized and open, so the sealant can not bridge them and the seam stays wet.
Run it with the Photo Gate
A checklist nobody can submit half-finished
Load this list into RTI, stick a QR tag on the area it covers, and the submit button stays locked until every mandatory item is answered and the 5 required photos exist. Approved walks roll into a branded turnover package with a tamper-evident record behind every line.
Submission state
The gate is enforced on the server, so it holds even if the phone is offline when the walk happens.
