De-Snag Inspection Services UK
Follow-Up Snagging Survey (Within 12 Months) Reinspect Your New-Build Home with Confidence.
Reinspect Your New-Build Home with Confidence
At HomeSnagging UK, we offer De-Snag Inspections. A follow-up de-snagging survey will check that all previously reported defects have been properly rectified by your developer. This inspection is typically carried out within 12 months of your original snagging survey.
Whether your builder claims all issues have been resolved, or you’re unsure if the repairs were completed to a high standard. Our De-Snag Inspection provides expert verification. Giving you peace of mind that all identified defects have been fixed.
Why book a De-Snag Inspection?
If you’ve had an initial snagging survey and handed over the report to your builder, it’s crucial to follow up. Unfortunately, not all developers’ complete repairs to the required standard. Some snags may still be outstanding or poorly resolved.
A De-Snag Inspection allows us to:
- Confirm which issues have been fixed correctly
- Identify any snags that remain unresolved
- Detect any new defects that may have developed
- Help you take further action before your warranty period ends
Our detailed re-inspection gives you a clear, updated picture of your property's condition. All backed by photos, notes, and expert recommendations.

What is involved in a De-Snag Survey?
Our experienced inspectors return to your home to:
- Revisit and check each item from your original snagging report
- Inspect the quality of the remedial works completed
- Record any outstanding or newly emerged issues
- Update your snagging report accordingly
You’ll receive a new PDF report within 24 hours of inspection. Clearly marking what has been resolved and what still requires attention.

When Should I Book a De-Snag?
We recommend booking your De-Snag Inspection around 6–12 months after your initial survey. This timing allows your builder enough time to complete repairs. While still being within your developer’s initial two-year defect liability period.
