Defect Reports
Targeted investigations into specific building defects.
When something is wrong — a crack, damp patch, moving wall, failing roof — we investigate the cause and set out the right remedy, in writing.
Who it's for
- Owners concerned about a specific defect
- Buyers needing a focused report following a Level 2 finding
- Landlords with disrepair claims
- Solicitors requiring an independent expert opinion
What we investigate
- Focused visual investigation of the defect
- Diagnosis of likely cause — not just the symptom
- Photographic evidence and (where useful) moisture readings
- Practical, ranked remedial options with indicative costings
A note from the practice
The instinct in the trade is to sell a treatment before diagnosing the problem. Our approach is the opposite: identify the mechanism first, then choose the least-intrusive, longest-lasting remedy. Not every damp patch needs an injected DPC; not every crack needs underpinning.
