De-Snagging Inspection — Included or Extra?
At Snag-Me, we believe a single inspection is not enough. If you book both the initial snagging and the de-snagging follow-up with us, the de-snagging is included at no additional charge. We want to make sure your property is truly defect-free — not just documented.
Why Snagging Is Worth Every Dirham
Think of it this way: fixing a single major defect after handover — like a leaking bathroom or faulty AC — can cost AED 5,000–15,000. A snagging inspection costs a fraction of that and catches these issues before they become your problem. It is the best investment you will make in your new property.
