Many buildings develop cracks after
construction. Cracking often has serious effects
on the structure. A cracking report will
identify the cracks, their cause, suggest a
remedy if appropriate and provide you with the
latest technical information available about
cracking and its causes
Rising damp, lateral damp
and falling damp are common problems, especially
in older buildings. Costs for repairing damp
problems can be high. Our inspectors have the
latest High Tech equipment to measure moisture
levels. Our Reports include recommendations for
any repairs
Dilapidation reports give a
description of the state of the building at a
given time. Cracks and other defects are
accurately recorded. Often these reports are
used to compare the state of a building at a
later date to its condition at the time of the
original inspection.
It could be that construction work close by has
caused change in the condition of the building.
Our written reports usually include photographs
of the defects.
From our experience
the Pest Report is the most commonly
ordered type of report. Timber
destructive pests such as termites or
borers can cause extensive damage to
buildings in a short period of time and
are difficult to detect as they usually
exist in areas that are difficult to
see. The Pest Reports details not only
termites, borer and vermin activity but
also wood rot, dampness and ventilation.
A Pest Report is usually a condition of
approval for finance by the lending
authorities. The Pest Inspection Report
issued by us will satisfy this condition
and allow finance to be arranged
