Earthworks, blasting, and demolition activities pose inherent risks to structures, and it is essential to mitigate these risks through proactive measures. Our team specialises in conducting dilapidation surveys, providing a comprehensive building condition survey of a structure before any construction work commences. These surveys serve as a crucial tool for protecting your company and minimising the risk of potential legal claims arising from construction-related damages.
Prior to the initiation of any earthworks, blasting, or demolition activities, our team can conduct thorough property condition survey of a structure, utilising advanced techniques such as video recording to capture detailed footage of the existing conditions. This comprehensive documentation allows us to establish a baseline for the condition of the structures, providing a clear record of their state prior to the commencement of any construction work.
Following the completion of construction activities, we can conduct post-construction building condition survey to compare the current condition of structures with the baseline established during the initial dilapidation survey. By making these comparisons, we can accurately assess any changes or damages that may have occurred as a result of the construction work.
The information gathered through our dilapidation report serves multiple purposes. Firstly, it helps to protect your company by documenting the condition of a structure prior to any construction or excavation work, providing evidence to refute any unfounded claims of damage. Additionally, it demonstrates your commitment to responsible construction practices and proactive risk management, which can help to build trust and goodwill within the local community.
In the event that construction-related damages do occur, our comprehensive dilapidation report provides unmistakable evidence of the extent and nature of the damage, facilitating prompt resolution and minimising the potential for costly legal disputes. By taking proactive measures to document the condition of a structure before and after construction activities, our team helps to safeguard your company’s reputation, fiscal interests, and legal liabilities.
Dilapidation surveys are a prudent and essential step in the construction process, helping to protect your company from potential legal claims and disputes. EC Engineers is dedicated to providing comprehensive and reliable survey services, utilising advanced techniques to accurately document the condition of a structure and mitigate the risks associated with construction-related damages.
