Hi,
Hopefully I have the right forum to post this kind of question!
I've been in a new build for almost nine months now.
The developer pressed to get a snagging list sorted and agreed within the first couple of weeks, which I did. This included things like doors not closing properly because of carpets, paint touch ups etc. Nothing major.
Now however, several doors are sticking in their frames, some quite badly. There are also cracks appearing along plasterboard joints.
I'm aware the cracks are normal and I've no problem sorting those when I come to decorate, but the doors are annoying and while I could sort that as well, I'm wondering if this kind of thing can be rectified by the developer even though the snagging list has already been processed.
It seems strange to agree a snagging list so quickly after completion when things like these can occur, but this is my first new build home so I'm not entirely sure.
The developer isn't on site any more and has been difficult to get hold of for the one remaining issue on the initial snagging list (kitchen cupboards not closing properly).
I have a guarantee apparently (although no certificate) but as I understand it, this will be for serious issues.
Thanks for reading!
