Our Snagging Inspection Process
We carry out thorough inspections of new-build properties, carefully assessing every area to ensure no detail is missed. Our process includes:
Interior Inspection: We check every room, examining walls, ceilings, floors, and all fittings to ensure that everything is up to standard. This includes testing electrical and plumbing systems, inspecting windows and doors, and ensuring that appliances are correctly installed.
Exterior Inspection: We review the exterior of the property, including brickwork, roof, gutters, and any garden or landscaping features, to ensure that all external work is completed to a high standard.
Detailed Reporting: Once the inspection is complete, we provide you with a comprehensive snagging list that details all defects found during our survey. This report gives you a clear record to present to the developer, helping to ensure all issues are resolved promptly.

What is a snagging list?
A snagging list is a detailed report that highlights any faults or unfinished work in a new-build property. These issues can range from minor cosmetic imperfections to more serious structural concerns. Common problems we uncover during our inspections include:
Poor paintwork or plastering
Incomplete or defective fixtures and fittings
Faulty plumbing or electrical installations
Problems with doors and windows
Flooring or tiling defects
By creating a snagging list, you can provide your developer with a clear outline of the issues that need to be rectified before you complete the purchase or move into your new home.
