Frequently asked questions

What is a Snag?

A snag is a defect, issue, or minor problem identified during an inspection. It’s an imperfection that needs to be fixed before a product, project, or property is considered complete or fully accepted.

How do I set up SnagTags on a new project?

Purchase a SnagTags pack, scan the QR code provided inside, and follow the prompts to assign the tags to a new or existing project. Setup takes under 2 minutes.

Do I need an app or special software?

No. SnagTags works in any web browser. Contractors just scan the tag with their phone to open and update the snag. No downloads. No training required.

How do trades update snags on site?

They scan the tag, add photos/notes, mark progress, and upload completion proof. The status updates in real time on your dashboard.

Can SnagTags work across multiple trades on one project?

Yes. Tags can be assigned to specific trades. When scanned, the interface clearly shows which trade the tag belongs to so mistakes are avoided.

What if another trade scans it by mistake?

They’ll immediately see the trade assignment on screen. This prevents accidental updates and keeps responsibilities clear.

What happens if a SnagTag gets lost or removed?

The snag is still active in the dashboard. Contractors can select and update the snag manually from the project’s snag list — no tag required to continue tracking.

When is the best time to check for snags?

Snags are typically identified during a Snagging Inspection, which is performed right before the official handover or acceptance of the product or service. Alternatively, best practices for snags are conducted before a trade is completed i.e. after first fix electric etc.
