When something has failed and your builder will not accept it, we investigate, measure it, and set out what the engineering or the standard actually required.
One of our inspectors will call you back.

Building & Plumbing Commission Australian Society of Building Consultants Strata Community Association Building Dispute Practitioners Society A defect investigation is assessed against the engineering for your lot, the Guide to Standards and Tolerances 2015, the National Construction Code and ABCB Housing Provisions, AS 2870 for slabs, AS 3700 for masonry and AS 3740 for wet areas.
32 checkpoints across 9 areas on a standard Point Cook defect investigation report. Whatever is locked, sealed or buried under stored goods on the day goes in as not inspected. Unreachable work is never marked satisfactory.
Building and Pest Inspections Building and timber pest together, looking as hard at the ground around the house as at the house. 
Pre-Purchase Building Inspections A settled Point Cook home assessed under AS 4349.1, with movement measured rather than described. 
Mould and Moisture Inspections Where the moisture behind Point Cook mould is likely coming from, and what to fix. 
New Construction Stage Inspections Seven checks through a Point Cook build, with the structural items measured against your engineering drawings. 
Pre-Handover (PCI) Inspections The inspection before keys, where the safety items get chased hardest. 
Dilapidation Reports A dated photographic record of your home before work starts on the block beside it. 
Expert Witness Reports Drawn to the VCAT expert evidence practice note when a dispute reaches the tribunal. 
Pre-Listing Inspections See what a buyer's inspector will see, before your home is on the market. 
Insurance Claim Assessments An independent damage assessment to support an insurance claim. Instant online pricing for Point Cook, or contact the booking team.
No. An investigation report is prepared for you and your builder. The Building and Plumbing Commission dispute service and VCAT need an expert witness report drawn to the VCAT practice note, which we prepare separately.
Nothing is opened up destructively, no engineering is certified, no ground is sampled and no repairs are carried out. Where an engineer is required the report says so.
