A builder’s warranty is only valuable if defects are reported in time. Snagging inspections ensure you use your warranty effectively.




Key Points




Most new build warranties cover defects for two years (structural defects may have longer coverage).

You must report issues while they are the builder’s responsibility.

Professional snagging identifies problems clearly, giving you the evidence you need.





Conclusion


A warranty is only as good as the defects you report. Snagging ensures you don’t pay for what the builder should fix.
