New Build Snagging Inspection in Marbella & Costa del Sol

Find defects before you accept the property.

Inspect before handover. A systematic snagging inspection can identify observable defects, incomplete work and finish or functional concerns before you accept a newly built property, where access and timing allow. The report gives you a clear photographic record while there is still an opportunity to raise identified issues with the developer or builder.

Service fit

Who it is for

New-build buyers approaching completion, handover or an agreed snagging window with the developer or builder.

Timing

When to book

As close to handover as access allows, with enough time for the findings to be communicated to the relevant party before you accept the property.

What we inspect

01
  • Visible finishes to walls, ceilings, floors and tiling, including alignment and grout
  • Joinery, doors, wardrobes and fitted elements
  • Windows, glazing, frames and sealing
  • Sanitary fittings, bathrooms and kitchen installation
  • Terraces, balconies, railings and accessible external areas
  • Installed systems and visible services

What we test

02
  • Accessible fixtures, taps, toilets and drainage
  • Electrical points, switches and fittings with appropriate testers
  • Doors, windows and shutters for smooth operation and closure
  • Air-conditioning controls and basic function where safe and accessible
  • Selected level, alignment and dimension measurements where appropriate

What we document

03
  • Room-by-room photographic evidence with exact locations
  • Concise defect descriptions with category and severity
  • Status per item so progress can be tracked

What you receive

04
  • A prioritised digital snagging report that can be shared with the developer, builder or property contact

Independence

Independent by design

InspectoProperty works independently from sellers, estate agents, developers and contractors. Findings reflect conditions observed within the agreed scope at the time of inspection.
