WHY THIS EXISTS

Your builder’s snag list protects the builder. Not you.

Most new homeowners walk the handover with the builder’s own checklist, miss 60–70% of defects, and sign the happy letter anyway. After that signature, every crack, skew door, and leaking joint becomes your problem — and your money.

Professional snag inspectors charge R2,500–R6,000 and book out weeks in advance. Most people skip it. That’s exactly what builders count on.

HOW IT WORKS

A professional snag list from your own phone photos

Photograph every room

We send you a simple shooting guide so you capture what matters — corners, joints, plumbing points, the DB board, and the roofline.

Upload and pay R299

Takes about five minutes. No appointment, no inspector standing in your kitchen.

Get your report in 24 hours

A structured, room-by-room defect schedule referencing NHBRC Home Building Manual standards, formatted for direct submission to your builder.

Hand it over with confidence

Every item numbered, described, and categorised — structural, finishing, or compliance — with a sign-off tracking column your builder can work through.

WHAT YOU RECEIVE

Formatted the way builders expect to see it

Not a photo album — a defect schedule. Every finding gets an item number, a location, a category, and a box for your builder to sign off against. Five rows from a typical report, shown for illustration:
