Snag List and Handover — Home Improvements
A free, complete end-of-job pack for home improvements (not new-build homes): what to look at room by room, a 30-line snag list (room, snag, photo, agreed fix date, fixed on, checked by you), and a handover checklist in the order a homeowner needs it — the final account, snags, site and keys; gas and electrical certificates; competent person scheme and building control certificates; the builder's guarantee, any insurance-backed guarantee and product guarantees; manuals and other documents. Says what signing means, to read any form the builder asks you to sign, and when the six-year time limit runs from.

What it is not
