As a result, you can ensure that you receive the attention to detail you deserve, obtaining an inspection report that is detailed and comprehensive.

When do I need a dilapidation report?

Unlike our pre-purchase and handover inspection reports, our dilapidation surveys are conducted when earthworks or roadworks are operating close to commercial or residential buildings. Often commissioned by the appropriate local authorities, they are a way for both the roadworks team and occupants to feel assured about any potential damage that can occur. That is, if a claim is made about any cracking or damage to the building, our pre-construction dilapidation surveys will make it clear if the crack is new or old. To find out more about our dilapidation services, contact our trusted team of professionals via admin@bireports.net.au or on 1800 466 456.

Efficient and Accurate Dilapidation Surveys

As a small local business, we understand the importance of providing efficient and accurate results. Working around the clock, we ensure that you receive your dilapidation survey report as quickly as possible. This way, you can commence your construction project as early as possible, knowing you’ve received quality assurance from our qualified professionals. Despite providing a fast turnover, we place a high amount of care with our inspections, ensuring that each building is inspected thoroughly.

A dilapidation survey generally includes:

Inspection of all brickwork and external concrete areas
Inspection of tiled roof areas
Going room-to-room in each building
Checking for dummy, loose or cracked floor and wall tiles
Checking wall and ceiling linings
Climbing under high set houses to assess structural posts and floorboards
Assessing outdoor sheds
And more

If we can physically assess an area, we will. That way, you will have the legal documents necessary to prove what damage occurred and when.Ensuring each building is inspected thoroughly, we include in your reports photographs and an explanation of the defects this allows you and the home owner to view on paper or a computer the defects found prior to the construction of the road or project.
