ConsulTec provides independent building condition and defect inspection reports for Melbourne homeowners, lawyers, and owners corporations. These comprehensive reports capture a holistic and detailed snapshot of your property's condition at a specific point in time. Conducted in accordance with Australian Standard AS4349.1-2007, the survey meticulously examines all internal and external areas of the building, the site, and provides a limited snapshot of adjoining properties. It records critical details concerning safety hazards, wear and tear, and deterioration requiring urgent attention, such as water penetration, mould, and structural cracking. Furthermore, the inspection identifies defective and non-compliant items of work, referencing the relevant National Construction Code (NCC), Australian Standards (such as AS1288 for glazing), VBA Guidelines, and Practice Notes. Recommended building rectification works for each defective item are clearly outlined, and cost estimates for these works can be included upon request. We also offer virtual tour and aerial view footage if required. This service is invaluable for property owners, building contractors, property developers, lenders, and insurance providers. Whether you are dealing with incomplete works, poor workmanship, or a formal dispute, our independent documentation provides the clarity needed to move forward. Most reports are delivered within 24 to 72 hours, ensuring you have prompt, evidence-based information to support negotiations, warranty claims, or VCAT proceedings.
