NSW Fair Trading Australian Society of Building Consultants Strata Community Association Building Dispute Practitioners Society A defect investigation is assessed against the approved drawings and engineering for the property, the National Construction Code, the Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2017 and the relevant Australian Standard for the element in question.
27 checkpoints across 9 areas on a standard Box Hill defect investigation report. On a site under construction we need the lot open and the builder told we are attending. Where a stage is not complete we record that in the report rather than passing it.
Elements of one facade, recorded on a defect investigation in Box Hill.
New Construction Stage Inspections Seven checks through a Box Hill build, each timed before the work is closed in. 
Pre-Handover (PCI) Inspections The final list while the last payment is still yours to hold. 
Building and Pest Inspections One attendance covering both, with the pest findings kept in their own report. 
Apartment and Strata Inspections Your Box Hill townhouse or apartment, plus the common property you can see. 
Dilapidation Reports A dated photographic record before the lot beside you is built on. 
NCAT Expert Witness Reports Evidence drawn to the tribunal's procedural direction when a dispute goes that far. Pre-Listing Inspections Find what a buyer's inspector will find, while the timing is still yours. 
Insurance Claim Assessments An impartial record of the damage and how it came about, for a claim being assessed. Instant online pricing for Box Hill, or contact the booking team.
A defect report runs wide, cataloguing many items across an entire property. An investigation isolates a single failure and works out why it happened, which is the document you need when the argument is about fault rather than about whether the problem exists.
It is written so it could be, but the tribunal expects an expert witness report prepared to NCAT Procedural Direction 3, which we produce as a separate document. A good many disputes resolve earlier, because a clear investigation takes the facts off the table.
We set down what failed, and the requirement it failed against. Where the remedy needs structural or facade design that is an engineer's certificate, and the report says so rather than guessing at it.
