Scientific investigation to identify the root cause of building failures. We provide the evidence you need to restore integrity and safety.
Our Building Condition Report provides a thorough inspection of a building’s common areas to help owners identify early signs of deterioration, safety issues, and structural concerns. Our team of qualified engineers conducts a full audit and delivers clear, practical recommendations tailored to your building’s condition.
Many property owners only discover problems once they have already become costly repairs. At Buildcheck and Silveira Consultants, we help you stay ahead of defects through proactive building inspections, detailed assessments, and transparent reporting—empowering you to plan maintenance, protect your asset, and prevent depreciation.
Our Building Defects Reports evaluate defects associated with new construction, renovations, remediation works and building alterations. Each assessment aligns with the National Construction Code (NCC), relevant Australian Standards, and the State Guides to Standards and Tolerances, ensuring full compliance with industry requirements.
These reports help identify defects that arise after construction as well as issues caused by non‑compliant or defective workmanship. They are essential for owners’ corporations, builders, and property owners seeking accurate, evidence‑based assessments for rectification, warranty claims, and dispute resolution.
Important: Defect claim timeframes vary across Australian states, meaning prompt reporting is critical to protect your legal rights and ensure timely submission of claims.
Our Expert Witness Reports provide independent technical analysis prepared in anticipation of litigation or dispute resolution. These reports are commonly commissioned by solicitors but can also be requested by owners’ corporations or property owners when a building issue is likely to escalate into a legal matter.
Typical cases include water ingress, construction defects, structural failures, and issues affecting either individual lots or common property, where determining responsibility is essential. Our expert engineers deliver unbiased, evidence‑based findings suitable for tribunals, court proceedings, insurance disputes, and building defect claims.
