Each house is different and each will have its own snags. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Builders will typically \u201cpre-snag\u201d and find the most obvious issues which require attention. However, it is best practice to have your own independent inspection and snag list carried out to get an accurate professional perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be difficult for the new home owner to get a builder to return to deal with items that you may only notice once you have taken occupation of the house.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q: <\/strong><em>When is the best time to get my \u2018snag list\u2019 completed?<\/em><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A:<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>Ideally between contract exchange and pre-completion. We believe&nbsp; that the best time to get a snag list completed is before the release of the purchase monies, when the builders main aim will be to obtain the full purchase price. We work solely in the best interest of our clients, providing you with a professional high quality service with a detailed report , including photos of defects found from which the builder \/ developer can easily identify and rectify any outstanding issues.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For new build home snagging surveys in the Dublin area Holmes Property Inspection recommend snagging is carried out by one of our snagging inspectors a minimum of two weeks before the hand over \/ move in date, or at any time in the duration&nbsp;of the warranty period of an occupied property. We work solely in the best interest of our clients, providing you with a professional high quality service with a detailed report, from which the builder or developer can easily identify and rectify any issues which may have been overlooked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Never allow yourself to be unduly pressured by the builder into carrying out a Snag List prior to completion of the works. Builders or Developers often ask you to carry out the list weeks before the property is actually complete. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also a property should not be inspected if it has not been fully cleaned and ready to inspect. Dust and debris can cover and disguise defects.&nbsp; You should never ask the builder for a recommendation on who to hire for a snag list as it creates a conflict of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Unique and Professional Snagging Service is available through our website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Call us <a href=\"http:\/\/+353861700919\" title=\"+353861700919\">+353861700919<\/a> to arrange your property Inspection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-primary\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections-ie.stackstaging.com\/contact-us\/\"><strong>BOOK AN INSPECTION<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<section id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-94dec1f4\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns alignfull has-1-columns has-desktop-equal-layout has-tablet-equal-layout has-mobile-equal-layout has-vertical-flex-start\"><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"innerblocks-wrap\">\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-7b0444df\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\">\n<section id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-696626d6\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns has-1-columns has-desktop-equal-layout has-tablet-equal-layout has-mobile-collapsedRows-layout has-vertical-center\"><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"innerblocks-wrap\">\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-ee624f6a\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"612\" src=\"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections-ie.stackstaging.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/holmes-prosnags1-1024x612.png\" alt=\"snag list property inspection dundalk\" class=\"wp-image-157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/holmes-prosnags1-1024x612.png 1024w, https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/holmes-prosnags1-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/holmes-prosnags1-768x459.png 768w, https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/holmes-prosnags1-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/holmes-prosnags1.png 1108w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":157,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/template-pagebuilder-full-width.php","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"neve_meta_sidebar":"full-width","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"on","neve_meta_content_width":100,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-80","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/80","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=80"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/80\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":252,"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/80\/revisions\/252"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/holmespropertyinspections.ie\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=80"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
