Snagging Surveys in Canterbury
New homes around Canterbury are mostly being built on the edge of the city and along the coast, including the large Mountfield Park development to the south east, new neighbourhoods at Thanington, Sturry and Hersden, and growing estates in Whitstable and Herne Bay. High-speed trains to London make the area popular with commuters.
Every survey follows the same 200+ point checklist, and you receive a photographic, builder-ready report within 36 hours that you can send straight to your developer.

What We Find in Canterbury New Builds
Every area has its own building styles and common faults. Here is what our inspectors see most often.
New homes here range from city apartments to coastal family houses. The faults we see most often include:
- Doors and windows that catch, stick or let in draughts
- Sealant gaps around baths, showers and worktops
- Render and external seals that are cracked or incomplete on coastal homes
- Loft insulation that is thin, missing or disturbed
- Gardens, paths and driveways left uneven or poorly drained
Our Premium survey adds thermal imaging to find missing insulation and cold spots you cannot see.

Your Questions Answered
Do you cover Whitstable and Herne Bay?
Yes. We cover Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay and the surrounding CT postcodes. If your area is not listed, call us and we will confirm.
Can you inspect before I complete?
Yes. Our Pre-Completion Inspection takes place before you complete, so the developer can fix defects before you move in. We arrange access with the sales office for you.
How much does a snagging survey in Canterbury cost?
Fixed prices start from £325 for a Pre-Completion Inspection, and there is no deposit to book. The price depends on the survey type and the size of your home. See our pricing page for every option.
I have already moved in. Is it too late?
No. Your developer must put right defects reported during the first two years of your new home warranty, so a snagging survey is still worth booking after you move in.
