Taking possession of a new flat? Snag it before you sign

Possession day is exciting - and it's also your maximum point of leverage. Defects flagged before handover get fixed on the builder's schedule and budget. The same defects discovered after you move in become your problem.

What a snag inspection covers

Room by room: tile hollowness and levels, wall and ceiling finish, door and window operation and sealing, every electrical point tested, plumbing fixtures and drainage flow, balcony slopes, and waterproofing-critical zones scanned thermally.

The numbers

A typical new 2-3 BHK in Mumbai yields dozens of snags - most are minor finish issues, but nearly every inspection also surfaces a handful of significant items: bathroom seepage indicators, improperly sealed windows, or unsafe electrical work.

How the report helps

Our reports are formatted the way builder site teams work - location-mapped, photographed, severity-graded - so rectification is a checklist, not an argument. Most builders in our experience act on a professional report far faster than on a verbal complaint list.
