When you arrange your inspection, a local RPSA-accredited snagging surveyor takes care of your entire survey from start to finish — not a middleman taking a cut. We know the local area across England, arrive prepared with the correct thermal imaging and drone equipment, and give you a fixed all-in price before the inspection begins.

Same-day and next-day slots are available across the area. Get in touch before noon and we can usually have a snagging inspector with you later the same day. Every inspection includes public liability insurance and no hidden fees — the price we quote is the price you pay.

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 temporary staff member.

All projects include public liability insurance and no hidden fees.

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 — call us if you are unsure whether we cover your specific postcode.

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 wall types and access requirements, and whether you need extras like thermal imaging, drone roof inspection or de-snag follow-up visits. We provide a free, clear all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees. 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 fairest possible price for your inspection.
