Our snagging inspection teams have been been helping homebuyers, first-time buyers, property investors and solicitors across this part of United Kingdom for years.
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 subcontractor 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 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.
Same-day snagging inspection
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 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 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 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.
Solicitors, property investors and housing developers across United Kingdom rely on us for fast and precise snagging inspections on tight timelines. We provide reliable, on-time service and can work directly with solicitors, housing lawyers and estate agents.
