Comprehensive & Professionally Presented Dilapidation Report
Dilapidation survey reports are now an important part of the construction or demolition process. A dilapidation building report is an inspection with a written report, which includes photographs of a building or property that is undertaken prior to construction works commencing on an adjoining property. The proposed works can include a new unit building house, factory, office block etc. (particularly if there are underground garages), and alterations to a retaining wall, demolition, underground tunneling or road works. Councils usually request a dilapidation report prior to starting construction on commercial and domestic sites. Bonds taken can be returned in completion of construction if the outside of a building site such as pathways, kerbing, drainage, road and any other conditions of surrounding Council property are not damaged.
Commercial Building Dilapidation Report For builders that are involved with commercial building, a Dilapidation Report is a highly recommended procedure for structures and areas that have the potential to be affected by building works.
Industrial Building Dilapidation Report In the event of an upgrade or construction in the surrounds of an industrial building, a Dilapidation Report is highly recommended in order to ensure that the areas around the construction site are still in the same condition once the construction has finished.
Residential Property Dilapidation Report In the event of building works to a residential property, dilapidation reports are required to protect both the parties undertaking works and their neighbors. Should a dilapidation report not be undertaken, it would then be difficult to verify if damage had occurred during or before the construction on the adjoining property. When construction works have been completed, a second survey can be under taken to record changes that may have occurred to either property.
