Independent inspections of properties adjoining major
construction works that could be affected by the ground
movement involved in the construction. We have carried
out inspections in properties adjoining development
earthworks, bridge & road construction, high – rise
developments, shopping centres and government
infrastructure.
We inspect prior to construction commencement and
again at the completion of the project, provide a written
report with photographic evidence, to ensure any existing
damage is not falsely claimed against the contractor
involved in the construction works.
Example:
On many projects, property owners have lodged a claim
for damage that was supposedly caused by the
construction work, but the damage was evident at the time
of the first inspection, prior to the commencement of the
works, and was documented with photographic evidence,
in the initial report. Needless to say the companies
involved were able to have the claims dismissed.
