Snagging inspection pricing explained
The cost of your snagging inspection depends on the size and type of new build, the whether the inspection is pre or post-completion, the wall types and access requirements, and whether you need extras like infrared heat loss surveys, licensed drone survey or de-snag follow-up visits. We provide a free, clear all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees. Booking Tuesday–Thursday, confirming key holder availability in advance and providing the development name and plot number before the visit are all effective ways to keep costs efficient. We will always give you the most competitive quote for your inspection.
