When you buy a new build home, you expect everything to be perfect — pristine paintwork, smooth finishes, and a structurally sound property ready for you to move in. But even brand-new properties can have faults. That’s where a professional snagging list comes in.
At Cockrams Surveyors, our experienced Building Surveyors in Cornwall offer snagging inspections to ensure your new home is finished to the standard you deserve.
What Is a Snagging List?
A snagging list is a detailed inspection report that highlights defects, poor workmanship, or incomplete finishes in a newly built property. These can range from minor cosmetic issues, such as chipped paint or poorly sealed windows, to more serious problems like plumbing faults, uneven floors etc.
Why Are Snagging Surveys Important?
Even the best developers can miss things, especially when working to tight deadlines. A snagging survey helps you:
- – Identify issues early – before you move in or during your warranty period
- – Can be provided by you to the builder/developer to request that they rectify any faults
- – Protect your investment by catching hidden or long-term issues early
- – Gain peace of mind knowing your home is finished properly
Who Should Get a Snagging List Done?
Anyone buying a new build property in Cornwall, whether it’s a first-time buyer, investor, or downsizer, you should seriously consider a snagging list. Ideally, the inspection should be carried out before completion or within the first two years while the property is still under the developer’s warranty.
