Independent New-Build Inspection
Arrange an independent check of your new home and receive a clear snagging report.
A new home can look spotless at first glance and still have a surprising number of small jobs left to sort. A snagging survey looks beyond the fresh paint and new fittings to pick up visible defects and unfinished work.
An independent provider can inspect the accessible parts of the property, record what they find and prepare a snagging report. That leaves you with a much more useful list than trying to remember everything you spotted during handover.

The inspection is designed around the visible and accessible elements of a newly completed home. Every property is different, so we follow a consistent process while also responding to the condition, layout and finish of the individual home.
An independent snagging survey provider can inspect visible walls, ceilings, floors, paintwork, trims and finishes for defects, damage, poor workmanship or incomplete areas.
An independent snagging survey provider can check accessible doors and windows for general operation, alignment, visible damage, finishing issues and obvious adjustment problems.
An independent snagging survey provider can review visible fitted furniture, cabinets, worktops, doors, drawers, sealants and finishes for obvious defects or incomplete installation.
An independent snagging survey provider can inspect visible sanitary fittings, tiling, sealants, finishes and accessible plumbing-related details for snagging issues.
An independent provider can visually review accessible sockets, switches, plates, lights and associated finishes for obvious installation or finishing concerns.
Where included and accessible, an independent snagging survey provider can look at visible external finishes and elements associated with the property for defects or incomplete work.

The inspection is carried out for you, giving you an independent view of the visible condition of the property.
An independent snagging survey provider can work through the property systematically so obvious defects and finishing issues are less likely to be missed.
Findings are recorded clearly so you have a practical document to use when raising snags with your developer.
