Snagging and De-Snagging — Room by Room — Record

Statutory basis, cited on the form

• NHBC Standards 2024 Chapter 9.1 (a consistent approach to finishes — viewed in daylight from 2 m)
• CDM 2015 — Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (reg 13 — the principal contractor monitors the work
• the health and safety file)
• ISO 9001:2015 (control of production, release of products, nonconforming outputs)

Guidance and standards relied on

These are not law. HSE guidance carries no statutory force in itself, British Standards and NASC technical guidance are industry documents, and the Joint Code of Practice is an insurers' code. They are what the document is built to — and where a court would look for the standard of the reasonable contractor.

• BS 8000-0:2014 (workmanship on construction sites — general principles)
