What is a Snagging Survey and do I need one?
A snagging survey is a detailed inspection of a newly built property to identify defects or unfinished work that developers often overlook. These snags can include:
​
-
Poor finishes (paintwork, flooring, tiling)
-
Faulty fittings and fixtures
-
Heating, plumbing, and electrical defects
-
Doors, windows, and insulation issues
-
Structural or compliance problems
​​
Many new build homes have hundreds of hidden snags. Catching them early means your developer must fix them – saving you time, stress, and money in the long run.
​

Our three step process
First, the customer selects a convenient time for the snagging survey. This typically takes place the day after completion, though some developers may allow it to be done beforehand.
Next, one of our qualified snagging surveyors will inspect the property collecting information and photos of all the defects found. This can take between 4-6 hours depending on the size of the property.
Finally, we’ll create a clear, easy-to-understand snagging report with all the findings and send it to you electronically—usually within 24-48 hours of your new build home inspection.
