Aug 12, 2025
1 min read

One of the most common questions we get is: “How much does a snagging survey cost?”

Average Cost in the UK (2025):

1-2 bed home: £295–£350
3-4 bed home: £350–£450
5+ bed home: £450+
Extras (e.g. drone roof survey): £50–£95 depending on service

What’s Included:

Full room-by-room inspection
Roofline and exterior checks
Plumbing, electrics, joinery, brickwork, insulation, and more
A professional PDF report with photos and rectification notes

Why It’s Worth It:

Most homeowners find 50–80 issues
Developers are obligated to fix them (within warranty)
Left unchecked, issues can cost hundreds or even thousands to fix

Investing a few hundred pounds in a snagging survey could save you far more in the long run.
