A snagging survey is a thorough check of a new build property for any defects, cosmetic issues, or unfinished work before you move in. It ensures your new home meets building standards and lets you address problems with the developer early.
Our inspections cover everything: brickwork, plastering, roofs (with drone/thermal options), doors/windows, plumbing, electrics, heating—including solar and smart systems.

A Level 2 survey (formerly “Home Buyer Report”) is a comprehensive, non-intrusive inspection for older or non-new homes, flagging urgent and potential issues that could cost you in the future.
Unlike many, we’re completely independent, not linked to builders or agents. We combine snagging expertise with Level 2 survey knowledge—meaning we spot what others miss, explain every finding in plain English, and support you until issues are resolved.
We use advanced tools like thermal imaging to see behind walls and detect hidden problems others might overlook, including heating and pipework issues.
Absolutely—all our inspectors have deep construction backgrounds and receive extra training with strict quality controls. We’re 100% independent, so we always put your interests first.
Yes! We go the extra mile with every inspection, offering post-report support and even direct Zoom calls (“Ask the Expert”) to help clarify issues for you and your builder.
Our snagging inspections start from £350. Level 2 Home Buyer Surveys are typically £500–£700 depending on property size. All pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees.
You can book online, by phone, or using our Inspector In Your Pocket video call for quick advice.
