Re-inspection
|
Our re-inspection is suitable for customers that have already had a snagging survey at the point of completion and want a second visit further down the line before the end of the warranty offered by the builder. We will ensure that the important snags raised in the first report have been rectified properly and raise any new issues that may have occurred from the settlement process.

Thermal Heat Loss SurveyWe are specialists in new-build heat-loss due to our surveyors being qualified building thermographers. We are the only new build snagging company that are qualified in building thermography (although many try to offer the service). Due to the conditions required to do it properly, we only carry out heat loss checks between November - March. We can either do it as a stand-alone inspection or alongside a snagging survey for a discounted rate. For more information about this please click here.

Borescope Cavity wall check
|
We use specialist equipment to enable us to check areas out of sight. This includes using a borescope camera to check the cavity wall insulation. We only do this on traditionally built houses (not apartments, timber framed houses, rendered or clad) as it involves drilling a 10mm hole through the outer wall mortar joint (made good afterward) and checking the cavity in several areas around the house. Some of the time we find poor cavity wall fill or in some instances we even find no cavity insulation.

Room Measurements
|
When booking you will also have the opportunity to for us to carry out room measurements with a laser measure. This is not creating a floor plan but is rather taking exact measurements of your windows and walls so that you can order suitable blinds and furniture before moving in. This is particularly useful for when we are going in to snag your property pre-completion when you may not have the chance to see the property. Or some customers appreciate this service when they have just moved in to avoid the awkwardness of trying to measure using a normal tape measure! For an example of a room measurement please click here.

Hard Copy report
As standard you will get the snagging survey as 3 different documents: Pdf snag report with photographs, excel document version and an overview report which demonstrates some of the checks carried out.
If you would like a hard copy of the snag report being printed and bound then we can do so as an additional option when booking your snagging survey. The cost of this depends on the size of your property.
