What is Property Snagging?

Property snagging refers to a thorough inspection process that identifies any defects or unfinished work in a new or recently renovated property before the buyer takes ownership. It is particularly common in off-plan or newly built properties, ensuring that any issues—such as incomplete paintwork, faulty plumbing, or misaligned fixtures—are addressed before the property handover.

A snagging survey typically covers areas like:

Structural Defects: Checking walls, ceilings, and floors for cracks or poor finishes.
Cosmetic Issues: Scratches, dents, or improper fittings in visible areas.
Plumbing and Electrical: Ensuring all systems are installed and functioning correctly.
Doors and Windows: Ensuring proper alignment, insulation, and lock functionality.

The goal of property snagging is to ensure the property meets agreed-upon standards and specifications, providing peace of mind to the new owner by resolving any issues with the developer before moving in.
Below is a detailed breakdown of the key services we offer:

Foundations: Ensuring the base of the building is stable and free from cracks.

Leaks: Spotting moisture or water leaks inside walls and ceilings.

Prevent Mold Issues: Ensuring that areas with moisture problems are addressed to avoid the growth of harmful mold.

Post-Construction Follow-up

After the initial snagging inspection, we offer follow-up inspections to ensure that any issues identified have been properly addressed by the builder. This includes:

Re-Checking All Identified Snags: Verifying that the builder has corrected all issues as agreed.
Ensuring Compliance: Ensuring the property meets the required standards before completion.
