If you have neighbouring properties and are extending or renovating your home or knocking down an existing property for a new build, a dilapidation survey/report is necessary.
A dilapidation report can avoid possible litigation from council or neighbouring properties by having an inspection that picks up possible defects or damage prior to work starting.
Rothmark will inspect the property and council land and survey the area for possible impact from work to be started. This is essential for contractors or developers starting a new building project and checks any possible issues to third party assets.
Why you might need a Dilapidation Inspection and Report?
- Insurance for possible litigation from neighbours who have damage to their property because of demolition works.
- Damage to surrounding buildings or surrounding properties from earthmovers and equipment due to vibration.
- Damage from large construction vehicles to council land, e.g. road surfaces, gutters, footpaths and curbs.
- Inspection of cracks or potential structural faults in existing buildings that could impact future construction.
- A full report on pre-existing faults to cover your assets if legal action is taken against you.
