What is a snagging inspection and does the manager arrange it?

Snagging is a pre-handover inspection that documents construction defects before you sign the handover certificate, so the developer fixes them free. Dubai developers carry a defect-liability period - typically 1 year for mechanical/electrical/plumbing and 10 years for structural defects. A manager can arrange a professional snag (roughly AED 1,500-3,500) and log every defect in writing with photos to preserve your rights.
