New build inspections for homes across Hastings and Sussex.

New Build Inspections

If you are purchasing a new build property it is always advisable to instruct a professional surveyor to complete a snagging survey. A snagging survey (sometimes know as a new build inspection survey) is an inspection specifically for new build properties with the aim of identifying any minor or major faults that may need rectifying prior to completion of the sale.

Why is this so important? With the increasing demand for new housing, developers and builders are under immense pressure to construct new houses quickly and as economically as possible. This has led to an increase in issues with new homes and unfinished work that then becomes the new homeowners issue. A snagging survey is there to prevent this from happening. Organising a survey pre purchase ensures there are no hidden surprises or potential issues waiting for you when you move in.

Our experienced surveyors will inspect the internal and external areas of the property and identify all major and minor defects. It is recommended to have these surveys completed before you move in as it provides you with time and space to discuss and negotiate with your builder or developer. Snagging surveys however can usually be completed within 2 years of your warranty date (always check this timeframe with your developer though as timescales may vary).
