As both parties carry out a final building inspection there must be a mutual agreement to the contents of the snagging list and a discussion should take place as to how the faults will be corrected. When the site has been cleared of materials and tools, all work is finished and the snag list has been accomplished, the final payment for the job can be made.

If you cultivate a good line of communication between yourself and the builder, you are setting a good foundation in the smooth running of your building project. If you should find a problem, or something you want to modify throughout the project, speak to your builder right away. The longer you leave an issue to develop, the harder it is for the building contractor to put right and setting up a good rapport from the outset is important.
