A construction background.
A methodical process.
A report your developer can clearly act on.
We work in construction. We know how new homes are built, where standards slip, and where defects get hidden rather than fixed. That knowledge is what makes our inspections different - and what makes our reports effective.
Every inspection covers over 200 points, inside and out, following the same structured process regardless of the property or developer. Nothing is skimmed because a home looks good on first glance. Your report is delivered within 48 hours, fully photographed, in a PDF format that can be sent straight to the developer.
We work for you. Not the developer. Not the warranty provider.

“We'd just exchanged on a new-build semi in Cottam and honestly weren't sure a snagging survey was worth the money. We are really glad we decided in the end to reach out to the team at Insight. The inspector found a number of issues we would have never seen, with some being significant. The report was detailed, had photos of every defect, and was back with us within 48 hours. We sent it straight to the developer for the findings to get resolved. Without the report we'd have had no leverage at all. Can't recommend Insight highly enough.”
