On a new build snagging survey we don’t just raise issues for aesthetic improvement, we often raise fundamental issues that have been missed. Two examples from this past week include a chimney/gable wall not built plumb and window ledges not installed level.
Whilst it may cause no immediate concern, such issues could go missed until too late until a survey in the future raises it; leaving you to foot the bill rather than the developer making it right within their warranty. As a rule of thumb, the cost of a snagging inspection could save you money in the future!
