Highlights where builders may have cut corners.
Verifies that all systems (electrical, plumbing, heating) work correctly and are safely installed.

During the first 2 years, most new builds are covered under a developer warranty, which obligates them to fix issues for free.
After this period, the burden of repair—and cost—falls on you.
Early snagging ensures all repairs are logged and resolved within this window, reducing future maintenance headaches.
