Frequently asked questions
What is property snagging?
Property snagging is a professional inspection of a newly built or newly handed-over home. It finds defects, unfinished work and safety issues before you accept the keys. An engineer checks every room, system and finish against UAE building standards and the developer's specification, then records each fault in a snagging report you send to the developer to fix.
Is a property inspection the same as snagging?
The terms overlap. A property inspection is an independent, room-by-room check of finishes, electrics, plumbing, air conditioning, doors, windows and safety features. Snagging is the name for that check on a new home before or just after handover. We carry out property snagging for new homes, warranty-end checks and second-hand purchases, all to the same written standard.
What is a handover inspection?
It is the snagging inspection carried out when the developer hands the property to you. We record every defect before you sign the handover papers, so the developer fixes them at its own cost.
Do I need snagging on a brand-new home?
Yes. Many trades finish a new home under time pressure, and touch-ups can hide poor work. Across more than 10,000 inspections we have found defects in almost every new property: uneven tiling, poorly sealed wet areas, misaligned doors, faulty sockets and AC that does not cool evenly. Snagging homes before you sign puts the cost of fixing them on the developer.
Why choose an independent snagging company?
The developer's handover team works for the developer. An independent snagging company buyers hire works only for you, has no reason to overlook defects and gives you a report you can rely on in a dispute. We take no referral fees from developers or contractors.
What does a snagging company buyers hire actually do?
It inspects your new home on your behalf. Engineers check every room and system against good building practice and the developer's specification, test the AC, electrics and plumbing, and deliver a snagging report you submit to the developer. A good snagging company buyers can trust stays independent of developers and contractors.
