Building Defect Reports

Professional Insight for Building Disputes
Building disputes can be frustrating, time-consuming, and costly. Whether you’re dealing with defective workmanship, incomplete work, or structural failures, having clear, factual evidence is key to a swift resolution. Inspection Hub provides independent defect inspections and expert witness reports for homeowners, builders, and legal professionals across Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, and the Surf Coast.
Thorough Defect Inspections
Leaks, cracks, poor waterproofing, and structural issues can quickly escalate if left unaddressed. Our defect inspections identify the root cause of the problem, assess incomplete or faulty work, and provide a clear, actionable report. Every case is unique, and our assessments are backed by years of industry experience and technical expertise.
Independent, Fact-Based Opinions
If you’re involved in a dispute—or want to prevent one—a comprehensive defect report can make all the difference. We reference the National Construction Code, relevant Australian Standards, and contract documentation to provide clear, unbiased findings. Our reports remove emotion from disputes and focus on evidence, helping homeowners and builders reach fair resolutions.
