Surface damage during construction and fit-out is almost inevitable — no matter how carefully a project is managed. Chips in tiles, scratches on worktops, marked doors and floor damage occur across virtually every new build or refurbishment project. Shazam Repairs works with property developers, housebuilders, and main contractors to address snagging defects quickly before handover.
The Snagging Problem
Pre-completion snagging inspections regularly identify surface damage that needs to be resolved before a buyer takes occupation. Replacing damaged items — tiles, worktops, flooring, doors — is expensive, time-consuming, and can delay handover significantly. In many cases, professional on-site repair is a faster and far more cost-effective solution.

Working to Handover Deadlines
We understand that pre-handover repairs need to happen fast. We work flexibly to attend sites at short notice, address multiple units or plots in a single mobilisation, and provide the documentation required to close out snagging lists. Our technicians are experienced working on active construction sites and comply with standard site safety requirements.
Multi-Site and Framework Agreements
We work with developers who have multiple live sites across the UK. Framework or preferred supplier agreements are available for developers who want consistent quality and pricing across projects.
