Snagging surveys in Essex

Essex combines strong London-commuter demand with its own growing towns, and new homes are going up across Chelmsford, Colchester, Basildon and Southend. Our independent inspectors — former site managers — cover the county and give you an honest, photographic snag list.

Every survey includes a room-by-room inspection and lands within 48 hours, independent of your developer and with no deposit to book.

Local knowledge

Commuter-driven county growth

Much of Essex's new housing serves London commuters, so developments are built and sold quickly and buyers often complete before the finishing trades have fully signed off. That's exactly when snags slip through.

We routinely find issues in decoration, second-fix joinery, sealing and external works, and we document each one so your developer can't dismiss it.

Yes — coastal locations add weather exposure, so external finishes such as render, roofing and sealing are worth inspecting closely alongside the interior.

Ideally before your developer's defect period ends. You have up to two years from completion to report defects, which your builder is legally obliged to fix under your warranty.
