Snagging Inspections

A snagging inspection is a process of picking up defects (snags) or omissions within a property. This usually refers to a new build and can help you make sure that you receive exactly what you pay for from your developer. Whilst the word Snagging is not the contractual term, it is used as a slang term within the industry.

Citi Snagging has a professional snagging inspection team that has extensive experience in working with housebuilders. We know exactly what to look for, inspecting all parts of the property to ensure nothing is missed. There will be some areas which the snagging inspector will not fully report such as an intensive structural survey. Whilst we will comment on issues from a visual inspection, a full structural survey will be required if you want to inspect structural issues. Backed by our extensive knowledge in the industry, we ensure each client receives a trustworthy snagging inspection.

With housebuilding output at a record high, media attention has turned to the declining quality of new builds in the UK. This means that quality can take a back seat in favour of speed and quantity of new homes being built. We will inspect all parts of the property that can be visually assessed with our snagging inspection services. This includes cosmetic issues, plumbing, electrical (faults & compliance) and external finishing.

With our inspectors being the experts in this field, we will also inspect whether or not your property is compliant with technical standards and building regulations. Citi Snagging is here to provide snagging inspections that can help to ensure your property is of a quality you expect, putting the consumer power back in your hands.
