Common Questions

A snag is a minor defect or problem in a property once building work is finished, usually work that is incomplete, unfinished or damaged. Examples are chipped tiles, patched paint, scratched glass, uneven finishes, missing door stoppers or screws, and cracks in walls. Most snags are cosmetic, but defects in MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) systems can cause real problems in daily life, for example faulty gas connections, poor cooling, damp inside doors or walls and wrong electrical wiring.

With this inspection, homeowners can find snags or defects in the property when the developer invites them to the Orientation or a visit, before they take the keys.

It gives you technical advice on the state of the property in every area (mechanical, electrical, plumbing and cosmetics), so you know it is free of defects before you accept the keys.

The inspection looks at every part and item in the property, from cosmetics, MEPs and sanitary ware to appliances and furniture, plus areas specific to villas and townhouses such as the rooftop, garden, carport, water tank, water pump room and manholes.

A snagging inspection is best done at the property’s Orientation, before the handover with the developer is complete.

Independent professionals have the technical know-how and experience, and use tools and equipment to find hidden defects and give an expert view of the property’s condition.

The developer is responsible for fixing every snag and defect found, and a De-snag inspection can take place before the keys are handed over.

Timelines depend on the size of the property and how many snags there are, but fixing them usually takes around 20 to 30 days.
