snagging list > lista de defectos
http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/snagging-list
snagging list noun [countable]
a list of small but important jobs that remain to be done on a new building, and which have to be done before the building is considered to be completely finished
What is a Punch List or Snag List
In most countries a punch list is part of the construction contract or otherwise used as a way to meet the quality terms stated. If the tasks on the punch list have not been completed satisfyingly the large final payment can be withheld until the punch list is completed.
A quick Google search teaches you that the term “punch list” takes its name from the old process of actually punching holes on a list with items in need of fixing. If you are located in Ireland or the United Kingdom you might know it under the term “snag list”. Today the punch list is primarily done electronically and ever so often supported by digital photo documentation.

lista de cotejo
I have come to the conclusion that while there are different names (lista de defectos/lista de cotejo) used in different countries, "remates/lista de remates" may refer to the snagging list/punch list, but I am not 100% sure.
