Buying a new-build property should come with peace of mind. In practice, it comes with snags.

Most new-build buyers discover defects after they have moved in. Some are minor. Some are not. The challenge in every case is the same: without written documentation, raising defects with a developer is harder than it should be.

A professional snagging inspection gives you a detailed, itemised report produced by someone who knows what to look for. That written evidence is your strongest tool when dealing with a developer during the defects liability period.

It is not about finding fault. It is about protecting your investment.

New-build buyers often receive a snagging report and are not sure what to do with it.

The report itself is only useful if the defects it identifies are raised formally, in writing, with the developer, and in enough time to make use of the defects liability period.

That period typically runs for two years from legal completion. Defects raised during that window are the developer's responsibility to fix at no cost. Defects raised after it expires are a different conversation.

Getting a professional snagging inspection done promptly and using the report correctly is one of the most practical things a new-build buyer can do to protect their investment.

CertiBuild's team includes Registered Building Inspectors under the Building Safety Act 2022. Reports are independent, thorough, and carry the professional credibility that gets results with developers.

The question is no longer whether to get a structural warranty, but which provider to use. This guide sets out the criteria that matter.

The structural warranty market has been relatively unchanged for years. Most developers default to familiar providers without looking closely at what the alternatives offer.

Here is what developers who work with CertiBuild tend to notice first: the process is fast and straightforward. The team responds to enquiries quickly, without the friction that larger organisations often introduce.

The warranty is accepted across the full UK mortgage lending market. CertiBuild Ltd operates as an Appointed Representative of Acrisure Eleven Network Ltd, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 314593).

CertiBuild covers any development anywhere in the UK, so there is no restriction on where you are building. If you are planning a development and want to understand what CertiBuild can offer, the conversation is straightforward and there is no obligation.
