We work to RICS-aligned standards, provide detailed digital reports with photographs, and we're fully insured and DBS checked. When you book, you deal with us directly. No call centres, no passing you around. Just a thorough inspection and a clear report you can use.

Based in South Yorkshire, we cover new-build snagging across the whole of South and West Yorkshire — from Sheffield and Leeds to Bradford, Doncaster and the surrounding towns.

How thorough is it?

We check the whole property, then send you a report

A snagging visit is not a quick walk-round. We work through your new-build methodically, looking for the small defects that are easy to miss when you are excited about the keys. If it is part of the home, it gets looked at.

After the inspection you receive a digital report, usually within 24 hours. Each issue is listed with photos, so you can pass it straight to your builder or developer and ask for the work to be put right before you move in.

  • Every room, including lofts, garages and outdoor spaces
  • Kitchens, bathrooms, finishes, doors and windows
  • Fixtures, fittings, decoration and visible services
  • Photographs of each defect, written up clearly
