Many buyers assume a new home is perfect, but defects are common. Overlooking snagging inspections can lead to unexpected repair bills running into thousands of pounds.




Financial Risks of Skipping Snagging




Hidden leaks can cause structural damage.

Poor insulation or window fitting raises heating bills every year.

Faulty electrics or plumbing may require expensive corrective work.





Professional Oversight Matters


A registered surveyor conducting a snagging inspection ensures defects are identified and documented clearly, leaving the builder responsible for fixing them under warranty.




Conclusion


Ignoring snagging isn’t a shortcut — it’s a gamble. Protect your home and your wallet by arranging a professional inspection.
