RennovEN Ensure: Construction Supervision
New home handover inspection — check everything before the final payment
A complete quality audit of your newly built house before you accept it from your contractor or builder, with a prioritised snag list.
The final payment is your strongest leverage with a contractor. Once it’s paid, getting defects fixed becomes much harder.
RennovEN Ensure audits the finished house room by room before handover, and gives you a snag list to close before you pay and move in.
Signs you need this
- Your contractor says the house is ready
- Final payment is due
- You want an expert to check finishing
- You have no snag list yet
The RennovEN promise
- 10-year warranty on all works
- Itemised pricing, approved before work begins
- One accountable team across every trade
- Residential specialists — homes only

Why it happens
Rushed finishing
Last-stage work is often hurried to close the project.

Small defects add up
