Many homeowners walk through their new property believing everything looks fine, only to discover issues weeks or months later. A professional snagging inspector follows a structured inspection process designed to identify defects that are easy to overlook during a casual viewing.


Inspectors look beyond obvious cosmetic issues. They assess alignment, consistency, installation quality, and compliance with expected building standards. Small details such as uneven thresholds, incorrect sealant application, or inconsistent finishes often indicate wider workmanship concerns.


The value of professional snagging lies in experience and method. Inspectors know where problems typically occur and how to spot early warning signs before they become noticeable to occupants.
