Purchasing a new build property in Model Village is a significant investment, yet the reality for most new build buyers is that their new home contains defects at the point of handover. Evidence consistently shows that a significant proportion of newly built houses contain issues that a qualified surveyor would record. Quality Snagging Company offers independent snagging surveys for new build buyers in Model Village and the wider region. Our surveyor brings a BSc(Hons) in Civil Engineering and Construction to every job, is a Chartered Member of the CIOB, is registered with the RPSA, and brings over a quarter of a century of construction experience. That background means defects are not missed.

Why Snagging Matters on a New Build in Model Village

New build homes in Model Village are subject to the same national pattern of defects found throughout the country: minor issues such as paint runs and skirting gaps appear alongside structural and building envelope issues including insulation voids, drainage failures and fire compartmentation shortfalls. An inspector who knows how buildings go together catches both the obvious and the hidden.

Quality Snagging Company's reports is formatted to be presented directly to the developer. Every item is photographed, precisely located and described in plain terms. Experience shows that a formal written report from a qualified surveyor produces faster, more complete remediation than verbal complaints alone.

What We Check During a Model Village Snagging Inspection

Every survey examines the complete property. Externally, this includes the roof coverings, guttering, downpipes and fascias, brickwork, pointing and render finishes, external drainage, hardstanding and all communal or curtilage areas.

Inside the property, checks cover all rooms and circulation spaces, wall and ceiling finishes, plastering quality and paintwork, floor coverings and the substrate beneath them, kitchens and bathrooms for fixing, sealing, tiling, plumbing and appliance installation, the central heating installation, ventilation including extract fans and trickle vents, the full electrical installation, and the loft space where access is available.

Specialist add-on inspections available for Model Village properties include thermal imaging, damp inspection, drone roof survey and borescope camera inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you cover all parts of Model Village?
Yes. Quality Snagging Company covers Model Village and the wider region. If you are unsure whether your specific postcode falls within the service area, call 07354 622752 or email qualitysnaggingco@outlook.com and the team will confirm.
How quickly should I book my snagging survey in Model Village?
The earlier the better, without exception. A pre-completion survey needs to be booked several weeks before your anticipated completion to allow access to be arranged with the developer. If you have already completed, do not delay, as the earlier in the two-year warranty period the survey takes place, the stronger your position.
Can I choose my inspection day in Model Village?
Inspection days are agreed at booking to suit you and the developer's site access requirements. Contact Quality Snagging Company on 07354 622752 or by email to check current availability in Model Village.
My developer says the property in Model Village is finished to a high standard. Do I still need a survey?
Yes, absolutely, and it is a very familiar position for new build buyers to be in. Developers have a commercial interest in completing the sale promptly. An independent surveyor with no commercial relationship with the developer is the only party who can give you an objective assessment of the property's condition. In Model Village as elsewhere, our inspections routinely find defects on properties the developer had signed off as complete.
Does the inspection in Model Village include external checks?
Absolutely, both the external building envelope and the full interior are inspected. Outside the property, the surveyor examines the roof, guttering, walls, window and door installations, external drainage and all areas within the property's curtilage. The full external scope is part of every standard inspection.
What happens if my developer refuses to fix the defects identified in the Model Village snagging report?
A professionally produced written report from a qualified surveyor significantly strengthens your position. If the developer does not respond adequately, the report can be submitted to the NHBC as part of a Buildmark warranty claim or to the New Homes Ombudsman. We can also carry out a re-inspection to confirm which defects remain outstanding, giving you an updated record for any formal process.
Is thermal imaging worth adding to a snagging survey in Model Village?
For most new build buyers, thermal imaging is a worthwhile addition to the standard survey. It identifies heat loss through insulation gaps and cold bridges, and picks up moisture ingress behind finishes before it has caused visible damage. Given the energy efficiency standards new homes in Model Village are expected to meet, any insulation deficiency can have a measurable impact on heating costs.
What makes Quality Snagging Company different from other snagging surveyors covering Model Village?
The key distinction is the direct construction background of the surveyor. The surveyor carries a BSc(Hons) in Civil Engineering and Construction, CIOB Chartered Membership, RPSA registration and more than a quarter century of site and industry experience. That background means the inspection is conducted by someone who knows exactly how a building should be put together, not just what a completed surface should look like. With a 5/5 Trustpilot rating, the results speak for themselves.
Can I attend the snagging inspection at my Model Village property?
Yes, buyers are welcome to be present. Being present means you can hear the surveyor's observations first-hand and ask questions as the inspection progresses. Whether or not you attend, the written report is comprehensive and stands alone as a complete record.
What types of property do you snag in Model Village?
All new build residential property types in Model Village are covered. Detached and semi-detached family homes, terraced properties, apartments, maisonettes and any other new build residential format fall within scope. For apartments, common areas, entrance lobbies, stairwells and any external amenity areas can also be inspected.
What is a pre-completion inspection (PCI) and how is it different from a standard snagging survey in Model Village?
A pre-completion inspection (PCI) is a snagging survey carried out before you legally complete the purchase. A PCI takes place before exchange or completion and gives you formal evidence of defects while the developer is still contractually motivated to resolve them before you take ownership. Both produce the same written report format. If you have not yet legally completed your Model Village purchase, a pre-completion inspection is strongly recommended.
