Why Dilapidation Inspections Are Important?

Common Issues Found During Dilapidation Inspections

During Dilapidation Inspections, we often identify several pre-existing issues that can be exacerbated by nearby construction work:

  • Cracks in Walls and Ceilings: Small hairline cracks or larger structural cracks can worsen during construction due to vibrations or ground movement.

  • Settlement Issues: Signs of ground movement, such as uneven floors or doors not closing properly, may indicate existing settlement problems.

  • Water Damage or Dampness: Water leaks, damp patches, or drainage issues that are already present can become more severe if not addressed prior to construction.

  • Fencing and Boundary Issues: Fences, retaining walls, or external structures may be vulnerable to movement or damage during excavation or heavy machinery use.

  • Roof and Guttering Issues: Pre-existing leaks or poor drainage in roof areas can be impacted by construction dust, debris, or vibrations.
