Building Cracks
Internal walls and structures make the foundations of your property, and cracks evident along walls can result in a worsening situation. With surrounding construction, excavation, drilling and more, building cracks can easily worsen, resulting in a dangerous and potentially unliveable property. A dilapidation report is crucial to note current status and any pre-existing damage, so that a before and after comparison can be conducted.


Internal wall cracking discovered as part of comprehensive dilapidation report – noted and documented to gauge impact of nearby construction.
Brickwork Damage
Thin or hairline cracks along brickwork, mortar, wall seams and more can all be impacted by surrounding construction, excavation and drilling. This can easily worsen, resulting in a potentially dangerous or unliveable property. A dilapidation report is crucial to record and note current status of the buildings and surrounds, measuring existing damage and any further damage incurred following construction work.


Concrete Damage
Thin or hairline cracks along concrete, external paths and more can all be worsened by surrounding construction, excavation and drilling. This can easily worsen, resulting in a potentially dangerous or unliveable property. A dilapidation report helps ensure that you have certified proof before work commences, to protect against claims and damages if required later on.
