    “Used Snag It on a new build in Maynooth. The inspector was meticulous — found problems with the attic insulation, a poorly fitted back door that was letting in draughts, and several electrical sockets that weren’t powered up. The report was superb and the developer sorted everything promptly.”

    Ross M Maynooth, Co. Kildare
  • ★★★★★

    “We purchased a refurbished Georgian house in Athy and were concerned about the quality of the works behind all the fresh paint. Snag It found damp penetration in the front elevation, an incorrectly installed boiler flue and poorly fitted sash window replacements. Saved us from an expensive nightmare.”
