Building Survey (BS)

A Building Survey (often referred to as a Full or Structural Survey) is the highest level of non-invasive survey that surveyors usually carry out during the home-buying process. It is suitable for all properties but is often most applicable for older or more unusual properties, or properties where problems are suspected.

In most cases the buyer will be able to re-negotiate the asking price, redeeming their (BS) costs after being made aware of the true property condition. Also being assured the property has been inspected by a professional.

Snagging Survey for New-build homes

When buying a new-build property, you’d expect to avoid all of those structural and cosmetic issues you find in older homes. Everything should be pristine. This isn’t always the case, however. The speed and large sites at which homes are constructed today often leads to issues and defects throughout the property.

A must for any newly constructed home

  • The ONLY survey of its type based on industry-compatible standards
  • Identifies “snags” in finishing quality
  • Designed to help avoid buyer/developer conflict by impartially identifying incomplete or cosmetically unacceptable works
  • Focus on the parts of the property you see, touch and use every day.

What is a snagging survey?

A snagging survey is designed to check for problems with a new-build home.

The best time to have a snagging survey done is the period between building work being finished and your legal completion date, so the developer has time to fix any snags before you move in.

However, some developers won’t allow snagging inspections to be done before completion, and may deny access. If this is the case with your purchase, your conveyancer may be able to intervene with the developer and arrange access by invoking your legal interest in the property.

If this isn’t possible, you should book the snagging survey as soon as you can after you’ve moved in. That way, the developer is still likely to be onsite, building the other houses, and you’ll generally have a bit more leverage with them at this stage than further down the line.

That said, you can technically have a snagging survey done at any time during the first two years of living in a new-build home, and the developer must repair any defects reported during this period. It might just take a bit longer to get things sorted.

The report is produced by an accredited inspector/surveyor who will provide an opinion about the condition of the property which you, as the buyer, will be able to rely on and use.
