Top service, top bloke, recommend.

We received a speedy response from Pete to make an appointment for our snagging.
He arrived on time and we were extremely impressed with his attention to detail.
He produced a comprehensive report for us the same day.
I'm sure he has saved us hundreds/thousands in the long run and without doubt improved the quality of our new home.
Lovely guy and no hesitation in recommending his services.

An Extremely Valuable Service

After a few months of moving in, we decided to have a snagging inspection on our New build. We had no significant issues with the house but wanted to do this for peace of mind. The inspection raised a considerable number of issues that, whilst minor, would develop into not insignificant costs for us down the road. Pete did a very comprehensive job and was courteous and detailed in the descriptions throughout, which are now accepted and logged with the developer. I highly recommend the house inspector. For me, It has saved me money down the road and It has been a valuable investment for peace of mind in what is probably the biggest single purchase I will make in my lifetime, My House.

Very quick turn around and developer said report was one of best he’s seen…

Pete was quick to reply and so helpful when my completion date changed and we had to change the date of the snag visit… twice!
He was very professional and courteous, returning the report the same day. The site manager was happy with the format and level of detail given. Photos and detailed arrows have provided a quick and easy way to resolve the snags. Great.

Very thorough job

Peter did a thorough job looking into every cranny of our house. It took a whole day! We were presented with a big and clear list of things for our developers to fix. I can whole heartedly recommend The House Inspector.

Pete did an excellent job of snagging our new 5 bed home.

Pete did an excellent job of completing a snagging inspection on our new 5 bed property. We were becoming increasingly concerned about the quality of the property we had purchased. Pete was professional and thorough in compiling his report. The report was emailed the same day and was presented in an incredibly clear, well set out format. We would highly recommend The Housing Inspector!

Faultless, professional service from start to finish

We hired Pete to carry out a snagging survey on our new build property and would heartily recommend him for the incredibly prompt and professional service he offered and the pride he takes in his work.

We really appreciated Pete's accurate and wide-ranging knowledge and his attention to detail which came through clearly in the resulting report. The tone of his writing was positive with constructive suggestions made where appropriate. The quality of the accompanying photographs, complete with arrow indicators, really help to clarify exactly what each comment refers to.

I feel we have a much better insight now into the strengths and weaknesses of the property. We were really reassured by Pete's assessment of the general build quality inside and out, and we hope that the fine detail of his comments regarding wall/door/hardware/ bathroom finishing will really steer us towards getting the property to a finished standard to be proud of.

Thank you so much Pete! You have taken a lot of the stress out of purchasing a new build property and we now feel we have the right information at our fingertips to proceed confidently with our purchase.

Highly recommended!

Pete did an excellent job of completing a snagging inspection on our new 3 bed property. He was professional, courteous and thorough in compiling his report, which was received mere hours after he completed the inspection. We would highly recommend The Housing Inspector!

Snagging for my new build home

Recommend by a friend for a Snagging Report of my new build home. Pete @ The House Inspector Ltd. was very helpful and nice.
The report was very detail and clearly listed out the problem, we just simply forwarded it to the builder for follow up.

I would recommend The House Inspector.

Pete you are terrific!

Pete is the kindest! He met us at the property 2 days before our snagging date to get the keys to us as we cannot go back in the property on the scheduled date of snagging. He also detailed all the snags he found all complete with photos and descriptions and sent it within the day! So quick service. Nothing to fault, he’s just the best!

Extremely knowledge, trustworthy and we highly recommend Pete!

Wow! I'm not sure where to start. Pete was professional from start to finish. I enquired through The House Inspector Ltd website and Pete was quick to respond, very 'on it'! He arranged a date and time that suited me and even offered to go out of his way to collect keys from me and he even dropped them back. Pete produced a report on the same day which was thorough, clear and well photographed - Pete is extremely knowledgeable that he would pick up the things that you'd easily miss or not even think about inspecting.

Pete is honest, reliable and trustworthy and I would 100% recommend his service - when you're moving house, the first thing you want to do is get moved in and with Pete's expertise, we didn't have to worry about taking time to inspect the house or worry that we would miss something important.

If we move in future, we will definitely be in touch again for his service. Thank you Pete!

The House Inspector

Pete from The House Inspector did a truly thorough meticulous snagging inspection of my property. He produced for me a detailed report outlining every snagging fault including photographs which I have now passed on to the developer for their attention. Money well spent and a great job from The House Inspector.

Snagging report - Field View, Brackley

Moving into a new build we were sceptical about the benefit we would get from a snagging report as we thought how much could be wrong but based on the reviews of ‘The House Inspector Ltd’ we thought we would give it a go.

The report we received from Pete was detailed and professional and contained in excess of 160 snagging issues. I am confident we could have identified 20% of these but the rest we would never have seen or thought of looking at and the cost v reward of this report is more than evident.

Our builder has committed to correcting each and every issue and we thank Pete so much for his help and if anyone is debating the value of this service, our opinion is that it is worth every penny.

Plot 784 - Willow Park Brackley

Brilliant service and first rate knowledge from and extremely professional individual, I would recommend Pete to anybody who has moved into a new build home. Pete was extremely thorough whilst also making little disruption to me whilst he conducted the search of my new home. The knowledge and insight he has into the new build process is second to none and really has assured my partner and I over the quality of our house. Thanks Pete!
