Unsure if your postcode is covered? Contact us — we cover a wider area than listed and can quickly confirm availability straight away.

Our inspectors know the full range of new build property types found locally — from high-density apartment developments with complex ventilation systems and large estate developments with multiple contractor handovers to individual new build plots with specific structural requirements. That local knowledge means we arrive with the right equipment, the right inspection approach and the right expertise for your particular new build — first time, every time.

Every inspection is carried out by a fully RPSA-accredited, insured snagging surveyor — not a third-party contractor or temporary staff member. We arrive on time, provide a clear fixed quote before we start and do not submit your report until every defect has been documented and you are fully satisfied. All projects include full insurance cover and zero hidden charges.

From single apartment pre-completion checks to large-scale post-completion snagging surveys with thermal imaging and drone roof inspections, we handle every type of project. We also serve surrounding towns and villages — contact us if you are unsure whether we cover your specific postcode.

If you need an inspection at short notice — particularly if you are facing an imminent completion date — same-day slots are available subject to availability. Get in touch and we can usually have a local snagging inspector with you the same day or the following morning.

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 property's structural complexity, and whether you need extras like thermal imaging, drone roof inspection or de-snag follow-up visits. We provide a free, clear all-inclusive quote with zero hidden charges. Booking Tuesday–Thursday, confirming access arrangements in advance and providing the development name and plot number before the visit are all effective ways to ensure a smooth booking process. We will always give you the fairest possible price for your inspection.

Solicitors, property investors and housing developers across Scotland rely on us for efficient and precise snagging inspections on tight timelines. We provide reliable, on-time service and can work directly with solicitors, housing lawyers and estate agents. Priority scheduling is available for imminent completions, developer handovers and end-of-warranty deadlines.
