Building Consultants Sydney

Remedial Building Consultant Sydney

Our approach to each engagement is 'the project comes first'. We apply this approach by maintaining a consistant methodology, including consulting with key stakeholders, owners and or occupiers, followed by review & analysis of negative building consequences to lead us to the root cause of each problem. Once the root cause problems are determined, we can define the scope of work, begin the necessary specification, designs and planning, procure the right building contractor, and deliver the building works.

  • Consultation with the clients to define the project intent and specific requirements.
  • Consultation to define the impact to the client & surrounding environment.
  • Plan and strategise a design solution to deliver the intent in line with Australian Standards and relevant Australian Building Codes.
  • Provide detailed fee estimates setting out staging, risk and relevant recommendations.
  • Develop and implement a quality management plans.
  • Engage the correct suppliers for the project.
  • Monitor, test and manage quality output during works.
  • Deliver a compliant outcome.

What We Do

Forensic defect analysis with a focus on issues relating to water ingress. Water ingress can present a diverse number of symptoms from superficial to structural. It can be challenging to diagnose at times but also highly rewarding when the results are in.

Developing strategies to remedy building failure with the application of historically proven building methods combined with the latest technical improvements in both methods and materials with a view to life cycle extension to your building.

Identifying potential design flaws prior to construction. Through careful review of site plans, proposed materials & site conditions such as drainage, aspect, and location. A small change on the design could save the owner time and money on remedial work or energy consumption down the track.

Maintenance scheduling based upon site assessments. Having a maintenance schedule in place can equip the owner with the knowledge to increase the longevity of your asset.

Qualifying the right contractors for your project. This is the riskiest part of any project, but we are consistent & accurate in how we select & recommend contractors for your project.

Cost evaluations and general estimating of defect remediation & new construction. Have your project estimated prior to tender stages. Having a project estimated pre-tender stage gives a level of control on the financials and reduces the risk of inflated costing from suppliers.

Expert project management & superintendency consulting on small to large scale projects is something we take pride in. We utilise our cross-industry experience and education to strategically plan each project with a focus on good communication and minimal impact.

We offer you one point of contact for the life of a project.

Our building consultants and engineers specialise in the identification, design development and rectification of common building issues, such as water leaks, concrete cancer, structural cracking, drainage failure and project management. We adopt a unique approach of preliminary and investigative inspections which identify the cause and determine the resolution upfront, ensuring the issues are rectified in the first instance.
