DILAPIDATION SURVEYS

Heading & Associates have extensive experience in Dilapidation Surveying.

The importance of a dilapidation survey is often underestimated during the initial stages of a construction project.  A comprehensive record of the existing condition of adjoining structures, buildings, roadways, paths and other infrastructure can save thousands of dollars in potential damages liability. Often the existence of a dilapidation survey is sufficient to ward off opportunistic claims.

Our dilapidation surveys include high-resolution digital photographs, video and an exhaustive report which together provide a benchmark or reference point for determining whether defects resulted from construction activities or existed prior to commencement.

Heading & Associates have provided dilapidation surveys for the following projects:

• Southbank Cultural Precinct Redevelopment at Hamer Hall
• Metropolitan Remand Centre, Deer Park
• City West Police Complex, Melbourne
• Melbourne Underground Rail Loop tunnels
• Various residential projects

Dilapidation surveys can be undertaken for any structure or property including but not limited to:

• High-rise & commercial buildings
• Public utilities
• Educational facilities
• Historic and heritage listed properties Infrastructure.
