When you book with us, a local RPSA-accredited snagging surveyor handles your entire survey from start to finish — not a comparison site taking a cut. We know the local developments and wall types across Somerset, 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 weekend bookings are available across the area. Book early and we can usually have a snagging inspector with you later the same day. Every inspection includes full cover on every project and no hidden fees — the price we quote is the price you pay.

How snagging inspection costs are calculated

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 return inspection after developer remediation. We provide a free, transparent, all-in 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.
