Dilapidation Reports/Property Condition Surveys
To protect yourself against disputes with neighbouring property owners, contact SPI to organise your dilapidation reports.
SPI Property Inspections has considerable experience with these types of inspections, having carried out many across Victoria. We can be engaged on small development jobs, where it might be just a few properties either side of a construction site, or on large-scale infrastructure projects involving multiple houses, commercial buildings and street assets along a road or rail-line.
When you are carrying out construction or building work in close proximity to the properties, there is the chance that issues might arise, such as cracking, leaking or deterioration in the adjoining properties. This could be due to vibration from heavy equipment or excavation works.
THE SPI TEAM CAN HELP YOU IN 5 WAYS:
- We can provide a photographic record of the pre-existing condition of a property before construction work begins. This means you will have a benchmark against which to gauge any changes that might occur during the construction work.
- We act as an independent third party with the intent to help protect both the builder and owner against litigation issues. This means we can help avoid expensive disputes or possible legal proceedings.
- We can co-ordinate the notification and consent process with owners.
- We can carry out a video and/or walking survey of street assets, reporting on the condition of Council assets including road surfaces, kerbs, footpaths, nature strips, crossovers, services and pit lids so that you will have a record of asset condition should issues arise with the Council.
- We carry out post-inspections after the construction has been completed so that variations can be identified. A final inspection will reveal whether any rectification works is required.

Comments From Our Clients
Very helpful and friendly staff. Home inspection report delivered quickly and very easy to understand
From start to finish, SPI were great. I had a highly qualified former architect inspect my property. He was quick to provide a preliminary opinion and provided a shortly after the inspection. Working towards a tight deadline, it was refreshing to have a building inspector that was able to work quickly, was able to communicate clearly and cost effective.
THANK YOU. Your service and prompt responses to all my emails/questions/text messages and your support? - well I CANNOT THANK YOU enough. I made several enquiries with various other Professional Property Inspectors and yes they all answered my enquiries but SPI answered 1st during the new year holiday break when I needed to engage an Inspector as a matter of urgency. To anybody reading this review, this is an honest review. If you choose SPI, you have chosen the right people. I knew it from the get-go. THANK YOU once again!
It was a great experience to choose SPI as building inspection . They can arrange inspection within short period of time and professional. Their sales coordinator was also very prompt to reply any question and arrangement . Great service !
A client recommended SPI, having used them for previous commercial inspections. I contacted SPI to do an inspection on a commercial property so I could be confident before ‘signing on the dotted line’. Was impressed by the quick turnaround (the inspection was booked for the next day) and how thorough the inspection was. Our inspector was happy to answer all of our questions. The report came through quickly which I was very happy about. I feel it gave me peace of mind. I would be happy to recommend SPI and will use them again in the future’.
