External InspectionAs part of our standard snagging inspection for houses in London we carry out a thorough check externally including a soil test and aerial photographs. (except apartments)

Internal InspectionMost of the time spent on the snagging inspection will be inside as we go through a variety of checks from paintwork to plumbing. We check for damage and poor workmanship.

Thermographic & BorescopeOur professional snaggers are experts in heat loss. When booking you can choose a borescope inspection to the cavity wall insulation for just +£25. As part of the full package we carry out a thermographic heat loss survey.

Our snagging survey in London typically lasts 3 hours for an apartment and 5 hours for a house, depending upon the size. Our inspector will arrive between 8-10am and snag every part of your property including:

For an additional £25 on the snagging inspection on your house we can also check your insulation. This involves drilling into the mortar of brickwork in a few places (which we will make good afterwards) to check the cavity and using a borescope camera. For apartments in London we unfortunately do not inspect this but as standard we check the heating system using thermal cameras which includes under floor heating.
We also use the thermal camera to check for heat loss which can be due to draughts or poor insulation and our surveyors are qualified to identify issues. To request this service it will be prompted as an extra during online booking or we can add it to the invoice at a later date

"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"
