What Our Snagging Inspection Covers

At East Midlands Build Check we take great pride in the detail within both our home inspection and reporting. We deliver you an extensive PDF report by email. This report includes images, locations, descriptions and priorities of defects found within your home, below are examples of the key areas we check both internally and externally.

We look at all parts of the property that can be visually accessed.

Thermal Imaging Included

Every inspection includes thermal imaging using professional heat cameras to detect cold spots, heat loss, and insulation defects that are invisible to the naked eye. This helps identify potential issues with insulation, air leaks around windows and doors, and areas where heat is escaping from your new home.
