You'd want to be checking all the radiators, lights, fans (and isolators). And can you check the water flow in all taps and pressure without an operating pump in the hot press? I'd be holding off.
MauriceRKK wrote: » Very good point buffalo, I heard very good things re: standard in this estate but the inability to check heating and potentially taps etc is what puts me off. It was suggested to me it might be possible to get the snagger in for a second snag to check electrics etc but I have zero experience with these things (first time buyer) and am reluctant to do that now. The problem is the pain this will cause re: delays to moving, I'm told 2-3 weeks after snagging for handover. Not a huge deal but will put a dent in plans for flooring etc. as it might be tight getting it done pre-christmas. Thanks for the sound advice.

We did our snag 20/21ish November and got the keys 8th or 12th of December. There was only one tricky snag that required re-plastering a section of wall (and it took a couple of goes), the rest were easily fixed. So if you're lucky with snags, it's doable to at least be in by Christmas! We painted the floors with a sealant to keep the dust down, took the pressure off to get the floors done when we didn't know what we wanted. edit: Also, I wouldn't be surprised if they're under pressure/incentives to close some sales before Christmas, so hold your ground and you might get some very rapid fixes done!

Also, Does anyone (who had purchased a 4bed with floors and appliances) knows exactly what appliances are included on that 4 bed? The only thing I know is that the brand they use is Normende... Thank you in advance!
