Same-day and next-day slots are available across the area. Get in touch before noon and we can usually have a snagging inspector with you later the same day. Every inspection includes public liability insurance and no hidden fees — the price we quote is the price you pay.

What affects your inspection price
The cost of your snagging inspection depends on the number of bedrooms and property type, 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 return inspection after developer remediation. We provide a free, clear all-inclusive quote with zero hidden charges. 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 ensure a smooth booking process. We will always give you the most competitive quote for your inspection.
