Snagging is the systematic inspection of a new property for defects and workmanship faults, before handover is finally accepted.
Surfaces, building services, windows, bathrooms and conformity with the agreed specification are checked. Items found are recorded and rectified by the developer before or shortly after handover.
Thorough snagging determines whether you take over a defect-free home or wait for rework later. Specialist providers often carry out this inspection.

We recommend a professional snagging before acceptance and, where needed, refer the right provider. It costs little and saves a lot.
