What Snagging Means and Why It Matters
Snagging is the detailed inspection of a finished building to find every defect — the “snags” — before or just after handover. Developers and contractors work to deadlines, and the finishing stage is where quality most often slips. Once you accept the keys without a survey, arguing for free repairs later becomes much harder. A professional snagging survey documents each fault with locations, photographs, and severity, giving you solid evidence to demand corrections. Our property snagging and defect repair services in Mombasa protect both homeowners and investors, and are equally valuable for resale purchases and rental properties.
Defects We Find and Fix
- Structural and surface snags — cracked walls, uneven floors, hollow or chipped tiles, poor plastering.
- Plumbing defects — leaking joints, poor drainage, low pressure, and badly fitted sanitary ware.
- Electrical issues — dead sockets, reversed wiring, missing earthing, and tripping breakers.
- Doors and windows — sagging doors, gaps, broken locks, and failed seals that let in rain and dust.
- Painting and finishing — patchy paint, rough joinery, and untidy silicone.
- External areas — poor drainage, cracked paving, and leaking roofs.
From a missing hinge screw to a serious wiring fault, our property snagging and defect repair services in Mombasa catch and cure it.
Our Snagging Process
We inspect room by room with a detailed checklist, testing every socket, tap, door, and window. Faults are logged with photographs and mapped against floor plans, then graded by severity — cosmetic, functional, or safety-critical. You receive a clear snagging report suitable for submission to the developer or contractor, plus a repair quotation for anything you would like us to fix ourselves. Where the developer accepts responsibility, we can supervise and verify their corrections. Most units are inspected in three to five hours depending on size.
Defect Repairs Done Right
Where developers delay or refuse, our repair team steps in. We fix electrical faults, re-seat sanitary ware, repair tiling and plastering, adjust doors and locks, and redecorate poor finishes — with quality materials suited to the coastal climate. Homeowners, landlords, and investors across the Coast rely on our property snagging and defect repair services in Mombasa to turn hurried handovers into genuinely finished homes.
