    Depending on the builder/contractor/actual contract details in this case, they may not be interested in a snag list as they will sell to the next person so expand on the situation if you want good feedback

    I have recently finished to build a house, I moved in less than 6 months ago. Final payment is approaching. I can see a few things that needs to be fixed but don’t want to miss anything before last payment so would like to have a snag list done by a professional.

    This is not a snag list. That should have been done before you moved in.
    What you owe is the retention period payment. AFAIK it only covers defects, not snags.

    But list some of your issues, they very well may be covered.

    We went around the house with the builder before moving in. So far, the heating is not working properly, there is a leak in the ensuite, the shower had not been installed properly, a few cracks on the walls, windows not closing easily ... a few things that needs to be fixed. They are the obvious ones I can see but I was thinking that maybe there are other things less obvious for someone who is not from the trade that I have not spotted hence my query regarding getting a professional advice.
