Our snagging inspection teams have been helping homebuyers, first-time buyers, property investors and solicitors across this part of Highland for years.
Our inspectors know the full range of new build property types found locally — from multi-storey residential towers with specialist envelope and MEP requirements 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 specific property — 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.

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.

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, drone roof inspection or return inspection after developer remediation. We provide a free, clear all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees. Booking midweek, confirming access arrangements in advance and providing property details 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.
