Why use a local snagging inspector in London?

Large apartment schemes across east and south London and the Docklands means a steady flow of handovers across London, and every one carries a two-year defects window that starts at completion. A professional inspection in the first weeks - or ideally before completion - turns a vague snag list into a photographed, itemised report the developer has to act on.

Inspectors who work London's developments know which sites and trades recur. Every snagging inspector we match covers E, EC, N, NW and the other London postcode areas and is taking on work; you pick how many quotes you want, up to 6.
