Professional Snagging Survey Peacehaven
Are you purchasing a new build property?
A snagging survey is an inspection undertaken by a qualified professional which aims to identify defects within new constructions.
It is predominantly used for new build properties, particularly those purchasing off-plan. It inspects any defects or unfinished work which could be caused by the demand of housing going up and property investors having to keep to strict deadlines. Things can be missed and defects can occur.
A snagging survey has become an essential aspect of buying a new home so that buyers are protected when making such an investment.

Snagging Questions & Answers
What Happens during a Snagging Survey?
During the inspection, our surveyors use the latest technology and techniques to identify all faults, whether they be minor or major. We will then produce a comprehensive photographic snagging report with details of the construction which can be passed onto your builder. The report shall be issued to you within 5 working days of the inspection.
When Should I have a Snagging Survey Carried out?
It is our recommendation that snagging surveys always take place prior to completion. However, if this is not possible, it can take place within 2 years of the warranty date. However, terms can vary so please check these details! The main benefit of having the inspection prior to move in is that faults can be rectified with absolutely no disruption to you.
