Home Renovations, Extensions & Building Investigations

As a Licenced Builder with over 30 year’s experience in  Home Building Renovations, my role as an Expert Builder is to assist you with your renovation or extension project.

I also help to identify building failure in residential properties – crucial in ensuring the structural integrity, safety, and quality of properties. 

With a dedication to detail and a commitment to excellence, I provide a comprehensive Investigation Assessment service aimed at identifying defects, faults, probable causes and potential issues within homes , retaining walls and other associated structures.

Our investigation is for a Builders Assessment – it is commonly directed to assess a specific area of part of a Building or Structure and should not be confused with a “Pre-purchase inspection of residential buildings AS 4349.1”.  Regularly I am engaged to further investigate issues found on “Pre-purchase reports”.

Thorough and Methodical Inspections

Every investigation I conduct is visual, non-invasive and adheres to a rigorous and systematic approach. My assessments can be on an individual item up to a full building assessment. 

External Building Assessment

For an external assessment, I examine the exterior elements of the property such as the roof, cladding, foundation, and drainage systems. This initial phase allows me to identify any visible signs of damage, wear, or poor construction practices that could impact the home’s overall condition.

Internal Building Assessment

Moving indoors, I meticulously inspect all accessible areas including structural components, bathrooms, plasterboard, insulation, and all interior finishes. Utilising specialised tools and equipment, I assess each element for functionality, compliance with building codes, and potential safety hazards. This thorough examination ensures that no detail is overlooked, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the property’s current state.

 

Detailed Written Assessment & Expert Advice

Upon completion of the inspection, I compile a detailed written assessment that outlines my findings in a clear and understandable manner. 

This written assessment serves as a valuable tool for homeowners, buyers, and real estate professionals, offering insights into the condition of the property and highlighting any areas that require attention.

Each written assessment includes photographs, descriptions of identified issues, and recommendations for remediation or repair. 

I prioritise clarity and transparency, ensuring that my clients have a thorough understanding of the inspection Investigation results and the implications for the property’s maintenance and value.

Client- Centred Consultation

Beyond delivering written assessments, I prioritise client education and empowerment. I take the time to discuss my findings with homeowners or buyers, answering questions and providing expert guidance on the best courses of action. 

Whether it involves minor repairs, significant renovations, or ongoing maintenance strategies, I offer practical advice tailored to each client’s specific needs and budgetary considerations.

My goal is to empower clients with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their homes. By offering objective assessments and unbiased recommendations, I strive to foster trust and confidence in my expertise and dedication to their best interests.

Commitment to Professionalism

As a licensed Builder with over 30 years experience I can offer a honest Builders assessment.Home Building Inspector, I adhere to industry Australian standards, Building Codes, National Construction Code and regulations. 

I stay abreast of evolving building codes, technological advancements, and best practices to ensure that my inspections are conducted with the highest level of professionalism and integrity.

I recognise the importance of my role in safeguarding the investments and well-being of homeowners and buyers. By delivering thorough inspections, detailed reports, and expert advice, I contribute to the maintenance and enhancement of residential properties throughout our community.
