Snagging is a comprehensive check or inspection of your new home. Unlike Surveying which focuses on Major issues, Snagging looks for all problems, including cosmetic issues such as paint or plaster finish.
When completed within the first two years of purchasing a new property, your developer will work to correct the issues.
There is no qualification for Snagging, so when you hire a snagging company, you are relying on their knowledge and experience in construction. Ideally, the representative will hold relevant industry qualifications and/or trade body memberships.

Snagging companies usually charge in the range of £300 to £1200 depending on how comprehensive the check is.
