Construction disputes and claims are complex and expensive, but having the right technical expertise and advice from the get-go can make all the difference. Whether it be a defect claim, complex construction accident, incident or loss, allegation of liability or defective construction, The Construction Adviser team is experienced and equipped to provide forensic reporting and expert testimony on any issues related to existing or newly constructed properties, or those currently under construction.

We are accredited building inspectors who do interim or final inspections and reports when developers need to meet the NSW Fair Trading requirements of the SBBIS.

If you are planning on buying or leasing a property, you’ll need a comprehensive assessment of the building and any potential repairs or maintenance that may be required. We offer building condition reports, also known as building inspection reports, to help you make an informed decision about the property you are about to purchase or lease.

If you require a dilapidation report, our team of professional building inspectors and engineers have the expertise and knowledge to assess the condition of a property and identify any potential issues.

Similar to a building condition report, a dilapidation report (also known as a pre-construction report) is a document that describes the condition of a property before construction or development work commences. It is typically used by developers, builders, or local governments to document the condition of a property before and after construction, and to ensure that any damage caused by the construction is properly repaired.

A scope of works document outlines the specific tasks, deliverables, and timelines for a project or a portion of a project. It is used to define the project’s objectives and expectations, and to ensure that all stakeholders understand what work will be performed, by whom, and to what standard. The project manager typically creates the scope of works, but it may also be developed by the client, and is usually reviewed and approved by both parties before the project begins. When we provide you with a scope of works document, it can include:

• Project overview and objectives
• Deliverables and milestones
• Resources (people, equipment, and materials) required to complete the project
• Assumptions and constraints
• Quality standards and acceptance criteria
• Communication and reporting requirements
• Schedules and timelines
• Budget and payment terms

If your project requires remediation work, our project management services may be of assistance, including:

• Inspection and report of causes of building defects and failures
• Remediation scope of works documentation
• Building remediation tendering and contractor recommendation
• Supervision of the building contractor during remediation works, including quality assurance inspections at hold points
• Regular on-site meetings with the contractor to confirm scope of works compliance
• Contract management, including progress, claims updates, and confirmation for payment
