Take a Photo. AI Fills the Form
Your inspector takes a photo of any asset or defect. AI reads it and fills the inspection form automatically. No typing. No manual entry.
Convert your checklist into Mobile App
Catch kitchen handover defects across cabinets, worktops, plumbing, and appliances before the client walks the unit, with photo evidence per defect.
Customize with your logo and company details.
Available on App
Run inspections on iOS and Android - no internet required. Capture photos, annotate defects, and generate reports in the field.
Run the Kitchen Snagging Checklist on the Inspectly360 app instead of paper. Inspectors capture photo evidence, work offline, and assign corrective actions on the spot, and the report generates itself the moment the inspection is signed off.

Your inspector takes a photo of any asset or defect. AI reads it and fills the inspection form automatically. No typing. No manual entry.
Inspectors speak their observations in any language. AI transcribes and fills the form in real time. Completely hands-free in the field.
The moment an inspection is submitted, a branded PDF, Excel, or CSV report generates automatically. No manual work. No waiting.
Inspectly360 integrates with the tools your team already uses, including Zoho, Microsoft 365, and SAP. No double entry.
Your operations team sees completion rates, open issues, and compliance scores across all sites in real time. No chasing updates.
Manage every checklist in one connected workspace, capture evidence on mobile at the point of work, and let AI turn field inputs into clear, stakeholder-ready reports in minutes.
See which checklists your team has in progress across every site, jump into the same inspection with one tap, and keep field, supervisor, and back-office views in sync without sending screenshots on WhatsApp.
Every team reports differently. Build the report your operations, quality, or compliance leads actually want to read, share it as a branded PDF, and schedule delivery to the stakeholders who need it.
See completion, pass rate, and recurring findings across every checklist and every site, without pulling spreadsheets together at the end of the month.
Hand-picked templates for your specific industry needs.
The four recurring kitchen defects at handover are: cabinet soft-close failure (mostly base-cabinets next to the dishwasher because of vibration during install), worktop seam misalignment or visible glue-line, silicone-bead quality at the worktop-splashback joint and around the sink, and dishwasher inlet or waste leak after the first cycle. The Inspectly360 kitchen snagging checklist explicitly captures each of these against a photo, the responsible trade, and the verified-closure walk. The dishwasher cycle test and the kitchen-tap cycle test are run in the checklist, not just signed off on paper.
Yes. The appliance row (cooker, hood, dishwasher, microwave, fridge if integrated, washer if in the kitchen) is captured with the install certificate, the manufacturer's warranty card, the gas certificate where applicable, and the electrical isolation point. The hood extraction is tested with an airflow check, and the dishwasher cycle is run with the sink running to verify the shared waste. The cooker carries either the gas-safe certificate (gas) or the electrical isolation test (electric). All evidence is captured against the kitchen record for the defects-liability period.
Each unit's kitchen carries its own QR tag, its own layout, and its own snagging record. The site supervisor walks unit by unit, with the previous unit's findings visible as reference. The roll-up at the building level shows which kitchens have outstanding snags, which trade has the most open items across the building, and which units are ready for client handover. The contractor cannot dispute responsibility because each defect carries a photo, the named trade, and the verified-closure status.
Yes. Buyers and tenants can run a buyer-walk version of the kitchen snagging checklist before signing the handover document. The walk uses a simplified version that focuses on the visible finishes (cabinet alignment, worktop seam, sink seal, appliance install) without the trade-specific verification steps. The walk produces a punch list the buyer can share with the contractor or builder. The Inspectly360 record is the same shared evidence base, so disputes about whether a defect existed at handover get resolved against a photographed, timestamped record.
Each snag carries a defects-liability period status. If a defect surfaces after handover within the defects-liability period (typically 6, 12, or 24 months depending on contract), the buyer or homeowner reports it through the same record, and the named responsible trade is notified. The Inspectly360 record preserves the original handover photo and the post-handover photo side by side, which is the evidence the contractor needs to either accept the defect or dispute it on grounds of buyer misuse. The dispute is resolved against the record, not against memory.
The kitchen snagging record rolls up into the unit's full snag report (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living room, common areas) and the unit's full snag list rolls up into the building's punch list. The site manager sees building-level open items, the project director sees the project-level closure rate, and the client sees their own unit's open and closed items. The same record supports the trade payment release process — final payment to the kitchen joiner, the tiler, and the plumber is gated on the verified-closure status of their kitchen-related snags.
Quick Answer
A kitchen snagging checklist is the structured handover walk site teams run to catch kitchen-specific defects before the unit changes hands — cabinet alignment and soft-close, worktop seam and edge, plumbing under the sink and to the dishwasher, tiling at the splashback, and the cooker, hood, and dishwasher install. Every defect is photographed, assigned to the responsible trade, and tracked through to verified closure.
A kitchen snagging checklist is the structured handover walk site teams use to catch kitchen-specific defects across the cabinets, worktops, plumbing, electrical, ventilation, and appliance install before the unit changes hands. The walk is built around the kitchen layout (galley, L, U, island), with each fixture, fitting, and appliance verified for finish, alignment, function, and water-tightness, and every defect photographed against the responsible trade.
It replaces the generic snag sheet that misses kitchen specifics and the WhatsApp photos that nobody reconciles into the punch list. It produces one auditable record per kitchen, traceable to the named site supervisor, the responsible trade, and the verified closure.
The client moves in, opens the cabinet next to the sink, and the door does not soft-close. The contractor signed the cabinet off as complete. There is no photo of the door operating from the first walkthrough; the snag list shows a tick.
Two weeks after handover, water pools under the dishwasher. The plumbing connection was never pressure-tested with the dishwasher running. The defects-liability period clock has already started; the contractor disputes responsibility.
A snagging inspection checklist supports construction quality and handover discipline. By providing a systematic approach to capture defects and drive closure, this checklist provides essential benefits including:
A working kitchen snagging checklist covers the cabinets, worktops, plumbing, electrical, ventilation, and appliances. Common sections include:
Walk the cabinet run and verify alignment, function, and finish:
Verify the visible kitchen surfaces:
Capture the wet-trade integration and the appliance handover:
Tie the kitchen's electrical and ventilation into the snag list:
Follow these steps to run a consistent snagging inspection and maintain a clear punch list through to closure:
