Delapidation Inspection

Dilapidation Inspection

A Dilapidation Inspection is a vital safeguard for property owners before and after nearby construction or excavation work. It provides a detailed record of your property’s current condition — including walls, ceilings, floors, fences, driveways, and other structural elements — so you’re protected if any damage occurs as a result of the neighbouring works.

At The Best Building and Pest Inspection, our experienced builders and licensed inspectors conduct thorough, independent assessments using the latest thermal imaging cameras and moisture detection equipment to help identify even subtle changes or movement.

We recommend scheduling a dilapidation inspection both before and after nearby construction takes place. This allows us to document the original condition and then detect any cracking, movement, or damage that may appear once the works are completed.

We welcome clients to attend the inspection, so any questions can be answered directly on-site. You’ll receive a comprehensive, easy-to-read report within 24 hours, complete with photographic evidence and clear findings.

Having a Dilapidation Inspection from The Best Building and Pest Inspection protects your property, supports potential insurance or legal claims, and provides peace of mind knowing your home or investment is fully documented and protected.
