External Snagging Inspection

As part of our standard snagging inspection in Dorset we carry out a thorough check externally including a soil test and aerial photographs. (except apartments)

Internal Snagging Inspection

Most of our time snagging your property in Dorset will be spent inside as we also check every accessible part of the house, including the loft's insulation.

Snagging - the very name is enough to put you off. No one likes having to deal with problems or hitches. But for anyone who buys a newly built or converted property, the S-word can be crucial. Do it right and you could save yourself thousands of pounds. Do it wrong and you could end up with a problem property

"In November 2017, the family hired independent inspection company HomeSnag to do a report - and they identified nearly 150 problems"

Most problems with new-build homes are cosmetic and easily fixed. For that reason, a traditional survey is likely to be a little excessive - and this is where snagging surveys come in... We recommend hiring a professional surveyor to conduct your snagging survey"
