When you arrange your inspection, a local RPSA-accredited snagging surveyor takes care of your entire survey from start to finish — not a call centre taking a cut. We know the local developments and wall types across United Kingdom, arrive prepared with the correct thermal imaging and drone equipment, and give you a clear upfront price before the inspection begins.

Same-day and weekend bookings are available across the area. Contact us before midday and we can usually have a snagging inspector with you the same day. Every inspection includes full cover on every project and no hidden fees — the price we quote is the price you pay.

What affects your inspection price

We provide a free, clear all-inclusive quote with zero hidden charges. Booking midweek, confirming key holder availability in advance and providing property details before the visit are all effective ways to ensure a smooth booking process. We will always give you the most competitive quote for your inspection.
