What affects your inspection price
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, transparent, all-in quote with zero hidden charges. Booking midweek, confirming access arrangements in advance and providing property details before the visit are all effective ways to keep costs efficient. We will always give you the most competitive quote for your inspection.
