Snagging Lists/ Inspections

Guys,

Starting  to wonder about snagging lists etc as for new builds they are notoriously bad no matter who you buy off.  I bought a house off farrans in Northern Ireland and it was a disaster very bad workmanship and the foreman was an ass.  With that in mind I was thinking of using a firm to do my snagging list for me.  Has anyone thought the same or have any thought on this?  Is anyone using MRI if so what do they offer and cost?

Any info is welcome!

 

 

MRI will charge 300 euros if you are not in their lifetime after care scheme.  If you are in the scheme it is free.  We are in block 6 so will be completing in Feb/Mar 08 so will be looking around for such a service soon.  If you fancy doing yourself there are books you can buy that will help take you though the process.  I blieve it is a good idea to take pic's of any faults so they can see the problem.  I am not sure I will going down the route of making sure all the grouting is level using a spirit level but I believe some firms will do that.  As the developers will be on-site until at least the summer of 08 I am hoping any faults will be quickly resolved.
