Building Defect Reports and Expert Witness Services

Resolving Building Disputes with Professional Insight


At Inspection Hub, we understand the challenges and stress that come with building disputes. These conflicts can be emotionally, mentally, and financially taxing, often dragging on for years. Clear, concise, and factual information is crucial to achieving the best possible resolution. Our expertise lies in providing comprehensive defect inspections and expert witness reports for building disputes in Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, and the Surf Coast.

Thorough Defect Inspections


When defects or issues arise in your newly built or renovated home—be it a leaking balcony, roofing problems, bathroom waterproofing issues, or structural cracks—it’s essential to gather all the facts. Our independent building inspections identify incomplete or defective items and determine their causes. Every situation is unique, and our reports are backed by years of industry experience and knowledge.

Independent, Expert Opinions


If you’re currently engaged in a dispute resolution process or looking to avoid it through amicable settlement, an independent defect report from Inspection Hub can be invaluable. Our building consultants conduct thorough inspections, providing fact-based opinions on the causes of your building issues. By referencing the National Construction Code, contract documentation, and Australian Standards, our reports remain objective and remove the emotional element from disputes.

Detailed and Compliant Reporting


Our detailed reports can be tailored to meet VCAT requirements and clearly outline the defects in dispute. We provide an expert opinion on the issue, including detailed cost estimates for rectifying defects and incomplete work. This approach ensures that our clients have robust evidence to support their case, whether negotiating with builders or clients or presenting before VCAT.
