Megahedge vs the builder's handover inspection
Many builders run a handover inspection and keep their own snag list. It is useful, and it is the builder's. An independent check is commissioned and owned by you.
Side by side
Topic by topic.
| Topic | The builder's own snag list | Megahedge |
|---|---|---|
| Who commissions it | The builder | You |
| Who owns the record | The builder's site team | You, as a dated report and PDF |
| Damp measured with instruments | Varies by builder | Every wall, ceiling and skirting |
| Likely source for each finding | Usually not recorded | Stated with reasoning |
| Defect deadline and letter | Not included | Defect Claim Pack with the RERA window worked out |
| Re-scan after repairs | Builder's own sign-off | One free re-scan within 90 days, against the original readings |
Fair is fair
When the builder's own snag list is enough.
- The builder's snag list is thorough and you trust the site team
- You only need electrical, carpentry and finish snags, which we don't cover
Questions buyers ask
Will the builder accept your report?
The report is numbered and located so a site engineer can act on each finding. Whether a builder accepts it is up to them; the RERA route exists if they don't act.
Do you argue with the site engineer?
No. We record and report. The conversation is yours.
Can I use both?
Yes, and that is common: the builder's list for finishes, ours for damp and seepage.
