We did two walk through with our builder. The mechanical one was the night before the final. He went over everything that was mechanical from the furnace to the oven. The final walk through was basically going over the house to make sure everything was in order. Because they allowed us to visit the house every day there was no surprises.
As for any imperfections, they said there will be for sure. No matter how good your trades are they cannot eliminate settling and shrinkage. Technically we have a 120 walk through as well and a trades day set up to fix all the imperfections. But our builder said we can have that 120 whenever we want within reason. He said that if we live in the house for a couple of seasons most of the shrinkage and cracks will show up. They also had a service line that we can call at any time if something came up that was urgent.
