Would highly recommend Pete to inspect your new build

Pete is very thorough and goes through the whole house, internally and externally.
He finds things that we would never have found ourselves.
Would definitely recommend if you buy a new build

Very well planned and Awesome

Pete was awesome. I got a very quick appointment. Price was reasonable. He was very proactive. He gave me clear instructions and all went perfectly as he said beforehand. He did more what we have asked for. He was always available to sort out all our queries. His snagging list was very elaborate. Builder has agreed to the list.

I would definitely recommend him.

Thank you Pete :)

Pete is clearly a master of his trade…

Pete is clearly a master of his trade and is extremely knowledgeable and skilled, with a keen eye for detail. I contacted him to complete our snagging process and he booked me in swiftly and he then made contact prior to the inspection date to ensure I was all set for him to complete the work. His inspection was very thorough and he picked up on things that the untrained eye simply would not. This will have undoubtedly saved me hundreds, if not thousands and many hours of work further down the line in rectifying issues on my new build. He is punctual, efficient and organised and on top of that, is really approachable and an all round nice guy. I had the report the same day and nothing was too much trouble. He provided good and helpful advice and I would highly recommend Pete to anyone needing a snagging inspection completed on their home. Thanks Pete, much appreciated.

My Experience

Complete the snagging around 3 hours. Some key problem hasn't point it out!

Hi Edward, as mentioned previously, I want to reiterate that I spent a significant amount of time on your inspection due to the unforeseen circumstance of my iPad breaking in the morning. It took me 3 hours to capture all the necessary photos, and when I returned to the office, I dedicated an additional 4 hours to diligently compile your report. In total, I spent 7 hours on your inspection. I always strive to maintain a high level of professionalism and provide excellent service, and I apologise if you were dissatisfied with my service on this particular occasion. Pete

Excellent service

Pete did a snagging survey on our newbuild four bedroom house. He was really responsive and helpful from the start. A very knowledgeable, professional and friendly guy. His report was very thorough and well presented with helpful photos for each item. Would highly recommend!

Excellent service and report

We decided to do inspection on our house after 18 months living in it. Pete was very accommodating with his slots and communication was excellent. Pete looked thoroughly through the interior and exterior and found snag which we wouldn’t be able to notice. The report was delivered within 24h and was very descriptive with photos. Would highly recommend !

We recently used Pete to come and snag our new build property, fantastic communication right from the beginning. His report is so thorough and extremely comprehensive which I have already handed into the site manager.
I would highly recommend Pete and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again if I ever decide move house again!! Thank you for the bottle of wine as a moving in gift.

Spot on, 5* service

From start to finish, Pete was outstanding. His communication in the lead up was spot on. Messaged the evening before and arrived when he said he would. Was extremely knowledgeable yet able to explain in layman's terms. Thorough and diligent he spotted exactly the things that we would have missed. Absolutely money well spent and a fabulous level of service. I recommend you book him right now, you won't regret it.

We had never heard of being able to check a new build for snags by a professional but so glad we found the house inspector as this has given us a huge peace of mind especially being first time buyers. Pete was brilliant with our house check and very professional through out. We would highly recommend using the house inspector!

I would definitely recommend Pete if you are considering a professional snagger…

This was our first new build property and having spoken to friends and family we had thought we could manage the ‘general’ snagging ourselves, however it was clear when we moved in that the level of finish was not to our expected standard. As the list grew we decided to engage a professional snagger. We had a few recommendations from neighbours but I had already seen Pete’s website and aside from his experience, knowledge and existing reviews, I liked the fact that Pete also gave praise to companies which had done a good job. I called Pete to discuss our requirements and he answered any questions. I like the fact that my communication with Pete has been direct, he has always been prompt to respond and his assessment was fair. Pete was very thorough and still took the time to ensure any homeowner extras were captured in the report. Pete has been a great support and his report will be invaluable for us and our developer to work through. I would definitely recommend Pete if you are considering a professional snagger.

Professional and experienced

A very friendly and experienced inspector that works quickly and efficiently. Pete looked around our property carefully and put together a well presented document for us to send to our developer. I can’t recommend him enough.
