What is a Technical Report?
This is an assessment of a specific
problem in your property. We examine any building or timber pest issue
carefully, review any relevant documents and then prepare a clear Technical Report setting out the issues and what you need to do. We may
recommend an appropriate contractor, provide tactical advice about who
to engage to help resolve the problem or warn you about commencing an
unnecessary and expensive dispute.
Who does it?
A
specially trained, experienced building consultant.
How long does it take?
A written report is available within 5 to 8 working days of inspection
and an urgent 48-hour service can be arranged on request.
Why?
You often need advice on specific building problem such as how bad
rising damp is, what to do about termite damage to garden sleepers or
how to fix a chronic roof leak. Or you may want overall advice on what
renovations or alterations to make and how to stage them to limit
mistakes.
We provide this advice to hundreds of clients every
year. Often a Technical Report is the first step in Defect Claim or
Expert Report. Sometimes we may advise further investigations.
Which
types of properties are inspected?
All properties.
