Your Australian Dilapidation Report Pros

Australia’s specialist provider of pre-construction property condition reports, proudly servicing Australians main cities and surrounding regions.
We help protect builders, homeowners, developers, and neighbours from costly disputes by providing comprehensive, photographic dilapidation reports before any construction, excavation, or demolition takes place.
Our qualified inspectors document visible defects and existing conditions in walls, fences, driveways, and structures, delivering clear, timestamped evidence that aligns with local planning laws and local council DA requirements.

What Is a Dilapidation Report?

Before the first brick is laid or the soil is disturbed, a dilapidation report ensures there’s a crystal-clear record of the existing condition of nearby properties. Compiled by a qualified building inspector or structural engineer, it includes:

  • High-resolution photographic evidence of cracks, structural shifts, or surface damage.
  • Detailed written descriptions of walls, ceilings, driveways, fences, and adjoining properties.
  • A legally admissible record that acts as a baseline reference in case damage is later claimed during construction or excavation.

This isn’t just an optional extra. It’s a preventative tool, a risk minimizer, and often a council-mandated requirement in development applications.

Why Dilapidation Reports Matter

Construction projects carry risks, vibrations, shifting ground, accidental impact.
Without documented proof of a property’s pre-construction state, property owners and builders are left vulnerable to costly disputes.

Here’s how a professional dilapidation report protects everyone involved:

  • Avoid Disputes: Clear before-and-after evidence diffuses blame and keeps relationships intact.
  • Mitigate Liability: Builders aren’t held responsible for pre-existing structural flaws.
  • Support Insurance Claims: Strong visual documentation backs legal and financial protections.
  • Ensure Compliance: Many local councils require these reports as part of the DA (Development Application) process.

Whether you’re the builder, developer, neighbour, or owner, this report keeps things fair and transparent.
