At Snag Master Scotland, we take great pride in the detail and quality of both your home snagging inspection and building defect reports. All clients receive an extensive PDF report by email within 48 hours following the inspection. This report includes images of defects, their locations, detailed descriptions, and priorities of the defects discovered within your property.
We meticulously inspect your home, both internally and externally, using advanced testing and inspection methods to ensure comprehensive coverage.
You have a legal timeframe of two years from the purchase of your new home to report any home snagging defects to your developer for rectification.
