A dilapidation inspection report is an essential independent document that records the exact condition of a property at a specific point in time, documenting any pre-existing damage before nearby construction, excavation, or demolition works commence. Conducted by an experienced builder in accordance with Australian Standard AS4349.1-2007, this inspection is crucial for protecting your property during major projects like new home builds, renovations, pipeline installations, or government infrastructure works. Heavy equipment and digging can cause severe structural effects, including soil slippage, erosion, damage to neighbouring retaining walls and fences, or cracked paving, driveways, and landscaping. By itemizing each defect with high-resolution color photographs, the dilapidation report protects property owners from potential structural damage and protects builders from exaggerated claims. The comprehensive 1-2 hour inspection covers all internal and external areas of adjoining properties, as well as surrounding Council Assets like roads and footpaths. It is highly recommended that reports are completed both prior to the commencement of works and at the end, allowing for a clear comparison to analyze any damage caused. You will receive the detailed digital report in PDF format within 24 hours, providing a reliable defense and peace of mind for all parties involved.

Dilapidation and Comparison Report

From $495+ GST
A Dilapidation and Comparison Report is an essential safeguard if major construction, excavation, or demolition is commencing next to your property. Heavy machinery and significant site changes—such as the removal of earth, concrete slabs, or existing structures—have the potential to cause serious damage to adjacent houses and nearby infrastructure. This service captures the visible structural condition of a property prior to these neighboring works being carried out. Conducted by experienced building inspectors, this visual inspection thoroughly assesses and records the current state of the property while all fixtures and finishes remain in place. The inspector highlights any existing damage and identifies areas that are particularly vulnerable to the nearby works. You will receive a detailed, customized same-day report within 24 hours. This initial dilapidation report provides an accurate baseline, featuring comprehensive notes, measurements, photographs, and diagrams documented in plain English. If there is a change in the condition of your property during or after the construction period, a follow-up comparison inspection can be performed. Comparing the two reports offers a clear picture of any new problems or damage that occurred as a result of the neighboring works, potentially saving you thousands of dollars in repair costs.

A dilapidation survey report is essential to protect your property from potential damage caused by construction, demolition, or compaction works on a neighbouring property. Before your neighbour or the local council starts earthworks or demolition, it is crucial to document the existing condition of your house. This provides undeniable proof of any future damage caused by vibrations, heavy machinery, or contractor negligence. Collapsing ceilings, loose grouting, cracked tiles, cracked brickwork, sagging eaves, depressed paving, and damaged plaster are all possible side effects of building work next door. Our comprehensive dilapidation survey identifies and records any existing cracks, settlement, or dislodgement in all parts of your property on a given day. We go to great lengths to protect your interests by also taking note of external areas that might get damaged by contractors during the works, such as fences, verges, roads, footpaths, common service pits, service poles, and street trees. By being incredibly thorough and detailed with written descriptions and photographs, there can be no doubt as to what the condition was like prior to the commencement of adjacent building works. It is very hard to prove damage in retrospect, so getting an inspection now before the unthinkable happens is essential. Protect yourself and avoid future disputes with a clear, simple, and highly detailed dilapidation survey report from our fully insured, registered building inspectors who bring over 15 years of local Perth experience to every job.
