Rental Turnover Punch List (Connecticut): Printable Scope & Frequency Guide (2026)

What this checklist is for

These checklists are designed to help you organize tasks and communicate scope clearly to a handyman. A clean scope means faster scheduling and fewer surprises.

Printable scope checklist

• Write down each task in one sentence (room + what + desired outcome).
• Add measurements (lengths, heights, door sizes, tile areas, etc.).
• Attach 3–6 clear photos per problem area.
• Note access constraints (parking, stairs, building rules, pets).
• Decide who supplies materials (you vs the handyman) before booking.

Frequency & seasonal notes (Connecticut)

Connecticut’s seasonal swings can affect exterior work and moisture‑related issues. Ask about weather windows for outdoor repairs and plan preventive tasks ahead of winter and spring rains.

How to hand this to a handyman

1. Send the list + photos before scheduling.
2. Ask whether pricing is hourly, per‑task, or a fixed quote for the full list.
3. Confirm what’s included (materials, disposal, patch/paint matching, cleanup).

Local notes for Connecticut

A few state‑specific considerations to keep in mind while you compare quotes and providers:

• Older housing stock: older homes can hide surprises (lathe/plaster, uneven framing). Ask for a written scope and a change‑order process.
• Seasonal weather: exterior work may need weather windows. Ask about timeline flexibility and materials suited for seasonal swings.
• Permits & licensing: some electrical/plumbing/structural work may require a licensed specialist and/or permit. When in doubt, ask.
