Frequently Asked Questions
A snagging inspection is a detailed check of a new-build property to identify defects, unfinished work, or anything that falls below industry standards. The findings are presented in a report for the buyer to pass on to the builder for correction.
Ideally, a snagging survey should be done before you move in, just after the builder hands over the property. However, it can also be done up to two years after completion, depending on your warranty terms.
