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 in the Scottish border area ensure that all snags are found and accounted for.
A professional snagger will come to your home with a checklist and ensure that everything is up to standard. In the end, you will be given a full report which you can then hand to your builder.

Why Choose Lively Professional Services for Your Snagging Survey
You may be wondering why you need a snagging service, after all, if it’s a new house why would it have any defects?
The reality is we have yet to see a newly built house without any defects. We appreciate most new homeowners feel they can spot defects, and this is true. However, you are more likely to spot some superficial defects, missing the more serious ones that could cost you dearly if they are not reported to your builder and rectified.
We are here to make sure this is exactly what you get. We have been in the industry for years and have helped hundreds of homeowners have better, sturdier and most of all, safer homes.
Our snagging surveys are easy to follow and each defect identified will come accompanied with a photographed location, plus a detailed description of what the snag found is and who it should be assigned to. Your report will be sent to you electronically on the same day and you will also receive two hard copies within 48 hours, ensuring your builder can rectify them as soon as possible.
I would strongly recommend Lively Professional Services Ltd to anyone looking to snag their property. The service we received has been outstanding – from the offset, email and telephone support was provided, beyond the service we’d actually requested. Throughout the snagging process, support and tips were provided and Ian couldn’t have done more for us. The snag report was turned around in just a couple of hours and physical copies were also posted to us. Ian was incredibly friendly and informative. I would STRONGLY recommend this service.
