We offer a complete service that covers your home from the ground up. Our new build inspections in Brentwood are designed to catch everything that the developer has missed while constructing your home. That could be something as small as a missing screw in a door hinge or a scratch on a window. Either way, if it is the responsibility of the developer to fix, we'll ensure that it's caught ahead of time. Service packages include:
A snagging list, commonly referred to as a snag list, is a compilation of faults found in a newly constructed property. This list is created through a visual examination conducted by a qualified expert. We offer this as part of our new build inspections in Brentwood.
If you are buying “off-plan,” ensure that you have the snagging inspection done before you exchange contracts. This allows you to adjust and update your contract to include any snagging issues that may be identified during our inspection.
If you’re buying on-plan, the best time for a snagging inspection is when the builder serves notice to complete. This is generally done two weeks before you move in, giving the builder a reasonable amount of time to correct any snags that are discovered during inspection.
In some cases, difficult developers may try and deny you access but, as you have a legal interest in the property in question, your solicitor will be able to arrange access for you.
