Booking your survey online is quick and convenient. Select the survey that best suits your needs, and we'll take care of the rest.

Pre Completion Inspection


A Pre-Completion Inspection (PCI) follows a specific checklist designed by the NHQB (New Homes Quality Board) to provide homeowners yet to move in with a list specifying if areas of the property have met its standards or not.
The PCI is only suitable pre-completion and is issued within just 24 hours.

Snagging Survey


Our snagging survey is generally more in-depth than a Pre Completion Inspection as it is not restricted to the the NHQB checklist; rather expanded to include issues that are out of tolerance according to the standards of the NHBC and Building Regulations.
​This survey is only carried out after completing (unless consent granted by developer) and is issued within 48 hours.

New-build snagging in Leicestershire

At our snagging company in Leicestershire, we provide two types of inspections for your new build property: a Pre-Completion Inspection (PCI) and a Snagging Survey. The PCI report is delivered within 24 hours and offers an excellent opportunity for us to identify and report significant issues to the developer before you move into your new home. Our services cover all major towns in Leicestershire, including Leicester, Loughborough, Hinckley, Market Harborough, and Melton Mowbray.

During the PCI, our inspectors can detect issues such as blocked drains, leaks, damaged units, and substandard workmanship in brickwork, joinery, flooring, plumbing, tiling, plastering, and more. Although the PCI has some equipment usage and checks limitations compared to the Snagging Survey, it remains a valuable inspection that can help ensure a smoother move-in process.
For a more thorough inspection, we recommend our Snagging Survey, which is delivered within 48 hours and adheres to NHBC tolerances. This survey enables us to use more specialised equipment and inspect areas that are not readily visible, such as the roof, under baths, heating systems using thermal cameras, and checking the loft.

Here's a summary of some of the aspects we cover during a Snagging Survey in Leicestershire:
  • ​​brickwork inc weep vents etc
  • inspection chambers
  • thermal imaging of radiators / UFH
  • soil quality test
  • roof and guttering
  • garage & any boundary walls etc
  • groundwork
  • loft inspection
  • electrical test on sockets​​​​​
  • ​plumbing
  • Co (Carbon Monoxide) test​
  • levels of floors, walls and ceilings
  • fenestration

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