How snagging inspection costs are calculated

The cost of your snagging inspection depends on the size and type of new build, the stage of completion, the wall types and access requirements, and whether you need extras like thermal imaging, drone roof inspection or return inspection after developer remediation. We provide a free, transparent, all-in quote with no hidden fees. Booking Tuesday–Thursday, confirming access arrangements in advance and providing property details before the visit are all effective ways to ensure a smooth booking process.
