Our snagging inspection teams have been serving homebuyers, first-time buyers, property investors and solicitors across this part of England for years.

Our inspectors know the complete range of new build property types found locally — from multi-storey residential towers with specialist envelope and MEP requirements and volume housebuilder sites with tight completion timelines to bespoke new build homes 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 agency worker. We arrive on time, provide a fixed price before we start and do not submit your report until every defect has been documented and you are fully satisfied. All projects include public liability insurance 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. Contact us and we can usually have a local snagging inspector with you the same day or the following morning.

Snagging inspection pricing explained

The cost of your snagging inspection depends on the number of bedrooms and property type, the stage of completion, the property's structural complexity, and whether you need extras like infrared heat loss surveys, licensed drone survey or de-snag follow-up visits. We provide a free, transparent, all-in quote with zero hidden charges. Booking midweek, 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 most competitive quote for your inspection.
