BASICS OF SNAGGING
What is a Snag?
A snag is a small defect or a problem found in a property after construction is completed, typically manifesting as incomplete, unfinished, or damaged work. This includes chipped tiles, patched paint jobs, scratched glass, uneven terminations, missing door stoppers, screws, wall cracks, etc. While most snags are cosmetic, MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) defects can seriously affect daily life, such as improper gas connections, insufficient cooling, moisture inside walls or doors, and incorrect electrical wiring.
What is a Snagging Inspection?
This inspection allows homeowners to identify defects or snags in their property during the Orientation or Visit invitation by the developer, before proceeding with the key handover.
Why do I need an Inspection?
It’s crucial for receiving technical advice on the condition of the property across all aspects (cosmetics, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing) to ensure the property is defect-free before taking the key handover.
