As the UK’s only RICS-regulated nationwide snagging specialist, we protect your investment. From NHQB-compliant pre-completion checks to advanced thermal imaging, our award-winning team ensures your new home meets the high standards you paid for.
About The Professional Snagging Company
Buying a new build is likely the most expensive purchase you will ever make. You deserve a home that is finished to the highest standard, but in today’s market, site managers are often pushed to deliver on tighter margins and faster schedules. We are here to ensure that speed doesn't come at the cost of your quality.
At The Professional Snagging Company, we act as your expert eyes. We started with a single inspector in Manchester and have grown into a nationwide team of RICS and RPSA accredited surveyors. We don't work for the developers; we work exclusively for you.

Tailored Inspections for Every Stage
We offer two distinct levels of service to suit where you are in your buying journey:
- Pre-Completion Inspection (PCI): An entry-level assessment that meets the New Homes Quality Board (NHQB) requirements. This is essential for catching issues before you even pick up the keys.
- Post-Completion Inspection: Our most comprehensive service. We use advanced equipment to check your home against building regulations and warranty provider tolerances. This is where we leave no stone unturned.
Advanced Technology for Hidden Defects
Sometimes the biggest issues are the ones you can't see. That’s why we offer more than just a visual walkthrough. Our team can utilise thermal imaging to detect insulation voids or leaks behind walls, and drone inspections to verify the integrity of your roof and guttering—areas often overlooked by homeowners.
We Move When You Move
We know that completion dates are moving targets. If your developer pushes back your move-in date, don't worry. We offer the flexibility to rearrange your inspection at no extra cost. You can even book a "soft date" in our online diary to secure your spot, with the option to spread your bill across three affordable payments.
"Our mission is simple: to provide the most comprehensive inspections in the industry, giving you the peace of mind that your home has been built to the standard your money deserves."
Whether you are in a city apartment in London or a family home in the Highlands, our expert inspectors are ready to help you hold your builder to account.
