New Build Snagging Services in North Yorkshire
We understand that your new home is your biggest investment to date. That is why we pride ourselves on being one of the leading professional snagging companies in the UK, helping new build homeowners achieve the quality they deserve.
You may be asking yourself; why do new builds need snagging? Well, the answer is simple. Your new home would have been constructed by many different people in all weathers and conditions. Because of this combination, all new builds must have a snagging inspection performed.
What is Snagging and How Does it Work?
Snagging is the process of checking new builds for minor faults and sometimes major defects that need to be rectified. Our snagging services ensures that all snags are found and accounted for.
We will arrive at your home with a checklist and ensure that everything is up to standard. At the end, you will be given a full report which you can then hand to your builder.
You can see a sample snagging report of a new build house we did in North Yorkshire here.
“Lively Professional Services Ltd was recommended to us by professional in the Housing/Building field, as we were looking to commission a structural and snagging inspection/report on our new build property.
We received an incredibly professional service, which was supported by Ian’s extremely extensive knowledge and experience in this field. His rigorous inspection has proven to be worth its weight in gold. Nothing was too much trouble, all of our questions answered, and advice given in a fair, open, and honest way.
The service did not end after the inspection, aftercare questions and correspondence have continued. I would 100% recommend and use this company again, without hesitation. A 5-star rating was easy to give.”

Reviews
Throughout the whole process Ian has been great. Keeping in contact at every stage, we have been aware of everything that has been going on. With the amount of attention to detail in the snagging report that we received that was also sent the same day. It was easy to understand and work from. Well worth his fee, could not recommend more on a new build home!
Ian is highly professional and knowledgeable in his field, this is evident in how he carries out the inspection and points out to you details that you would not have thought about or even noticed. The report is highly detailed with photographs and enabled us to provide our house builder with the list of snags at the earliest stage so that we can engage with them while trades are onsite. I would recommend Ian to provide a snagging report as my first choice.
Extremely professional, efficient and reassuring service: was nervous about buying a new-build, but Ian's expertise has made a huge difference. Also faultlessly helpful and polite and answered all my (possibly stupid) questions! Can't recommend him enough and the service is worth every penny.
