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.

How snagging inspection costs are calculated
The cost of your snagging inspection depends on the size and type of new build, the stage of 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 midweek, confirming key holder availability in advance and providing the development name and plot number 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 England rely on us for efficient and precise snagging inspections on tight timelines. We provide reliable, on-time service and can work directly with solicitors, housing lawyers and estate agents. Priority scheduling is available for imminent completions, developer handovers and end-of-warranty deadlines.
