What is snagging?

Are You Buying a New Build Home?

In our experience working and building houses nationwide, it’s common knowledge that once a professional snagging team has snagged a property, all items are usually instructed to be completed within 7 days and customers are prioritised.

It is well known that Developers expect a snagging list from new customers, as new-build snagging experts, we use our knowledge, expertise, and equipment to ensure your new home is everything you dreamt it would be.

We know what issues to look for in our snagging survey and produce comprehensive and easy to understand reports and quickly.

Many of the serious issues we find are out of sight or knowledge for most people. With the tight deadline of handing in a snagging list (typically several weeks but sometimes as short as a few days) and the builders warranty period being just 2 years, it is important to act quickly. Failing to identify issues quickly may be hazardous or costly down the line. The 2 snagging surveys we offer are the Pre completion inspection and snagging survey.

We pride ourselves on keeping up to date in the sector and are certified by NHBC as Snagging and Handover specialists. This means we know exactly what to look for. Our eye for attention to detail will give you peace of mind.

A snagging inspection is a type of inspection that is carried out on a new home or newly renovated home before the final handover. The purpose of a snagging inspection is to identify any defects or snags that need to be fixed before the sale goes through.

The aim of a home snagging inspection is to make sure that your new home is handed over to you in a good condition with all snags and defects rectified.
