Pre-completion and Post-completion snagging inspections are both types of inspections that can be performed on a new home, but they differ in when they can take place and how thorough they are:
Also known as a PCI snagging inspection, this inspection takes place before the buyer takes possession of the property, usually before exchanging the contracts or complete the property purchase. It’s an entry-level assessment that meets New Homes Quality Board (NHQB) requirements and uses a standard checklist provided by the NHQB. The purpose of a pre-completion inspection is to find visual and minor issues, or “snags”, before the buyer completes the purchase and get the property keys.
This inspection takes place after the buyer has completed the purchase and got the property keys. It is a more thorough inspection that is not limited by the pre-completion checklist, and it may include breach of building regulations, use of advanced equipments like thermal camera etc. The purpose of a post-completion inspection is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the home’s overall condition.
With over a decade of unwavering commitment to perfection, we stand as proud leaders in the realm of new home snagging inspection surveys.
