We attend your apartment handover with the Czech developer, document every defect, and hand you a protocol — in English — that the builder is legally bound to address. Independent. On your side.
Czech developers run dozens of handovers a month. Their site managers are professionals at moving you through the protocol in 45 minutes — "small things, we'll fix them later." Once you sign, "later" becomes a warranty claim queue that takes months.
The handover protocol (snag list) is the one document where everything you don't list becomes your future problem. Crooked door frames, cracked tiles, undersized rooms, switches in the wrong place — if it isn't written in, it isn't fixed for free.
Nearly 14 years working on the developer's side of construction — we know exactly where the most common defects and shortcomings hide. Which trades cut corners, which finishes get rushed in the final week, and which "small things" the site team is trained to wave off.
We come with measuring tools, a thermal camera, a moisture meter, and the patience to find what they hope you won't.
We slot in around the developer's calendar — you don't reschedule, we adapt.
Forward the developer's email or share the date and address. We confirm within a few hours.
We meet you at the building, walk every room with you, and document everything photographically with measurements and references to your contract.
We sit with you and the developer's rep, listing every finding in the official předávací protokol. Nothing gets dismissed as "cosmetic."
You receive a full bilingual PDF — EN + CZ — with photos, locations, severity ratings, and recommendations for follow-up.
A new apartment is a thousand small details under one signature. Here's a (non-exhaustive) sample of what comes home with us in the report.
Most defect lists generated in a single inspection save many times the inspection fee in remediation costs.
For smaller apartments. Full inspection, defects entered in the protocol, bilingual PDF.
The default choice. Adds thermal imaging, moisture testing, and one free follow-up visit after defect remediation.
Larger flats, penthouses, or multi-unit investment buys. Full advisory and a templated demand letter if remediation stalls.
Prices exclude VAT. Travel outside major cities quoted on request.
"They found 53 defects in a flat I was about to sign for in twenty minutes. The developer paid for everything. Best 6 900 Kč I've ever spent."M.K. — VINOHRADY, 3+kk · Q1 2026
Not at all. Every step — booking, on-site walkthrough, defect entry, and the final report — is delivered in English. We translate the official Czech protocol contents for you in real time during the handover.
Plan for 2–3 hours on site for a typical 2+kk to 3+kk apartment. Larger flats or penthouses run 3–4 hours. We arrive 30 minutes before the developer to start measuring early.
Every finding is entered into the official předávací protokol the developer is legally required to act on. You don't sign-off on the flat as defect-free until those items are listed. Your contract and Czech consumer law give you strong leverage; we make sure you keep it.
Never. We refuse referral arrangements with developers and builders by policy. You are the only client we represent in the room.
Yes. Czech property law applies to your purchase regardless of nationality — and so do your rights at handover. We work routinely with buyers from across the EU, the UK, the US, Asia, and the Middle East.
A bilingual PDF (EN + CZ) with: every defect, photo evidence with location, severity code (cosmetic / functional / critical), thermal and moisture readings where applicable, and recommendations for follow-up correspondence with the developer.
Yes — with a power of attorney (POA), we can attend the handover and sign the protokol on your behalf. We prepare the POA template and walk you through notarisation. Common for investor clients based outside Czechia.
One quick form. We confirm availability within a few hours, usually less. If your handover is tomorrow morning, write to us tonight — we routinely book at short notice.
