WHAT IS SNAGGING?
"Snagging" is a necessary process of identifying issues with your property. Snagging issues range from leaks, plumbing faults, un-level ceilings, floors and walls, damaged units, missing insulation, poor joinery and structural issues. For landlords, it is a notoriously stressful and time-consuming process.​ The importance of hiring a snagging company is that we are experts in identifying issues with specialist equipment, and provide one comprehensive snag list for your developer to easily follow.
WHO NEEDS SNAGGING?
Anyone buying a new build home or a home in the secondary market should consider a snagging inspection. You could argue that if you’re spending anything over AED 500,000 it’s crazy not to! A snagging inspection can also be useful for buying ready built homes or at the 11 month warranty period. Also, if you’ve already moved in and are having snagging issues with your developer then a professional snagging report can help give weight to your case.
IS SNAGGING NECESSARY?
Many experts will say that snagging is more important now than ever before. Construction is at record levels – and developers are under pressure to complete every property on time.. So there’s more potential for things to go wrong. The level of defects in new build property is quite surprising. So it’s a very wise choice to get snagging inspection for your peace of mind and to find out that you got what you paid for. In the report we cover a visual inspection of internal and external works carried out in your new home typically looking at the listed areas below.
