If construction, demolition or excavation is planned next to your home, it can be useful to have a clear record of the property’s condition before the work begins.
Vital Building Inspections provides residential dilapidation inspections and reports across Sydney, documenting existing cracks, damage, deterioration and other visible defects.
The inspection provides a written and photographic record of the property’s condition at the time it is inspected. If the condition of the property changes during or after nearby construction, the original report can be used as a reference when comparing the property before and after the works.
With more than 20 years of experience in building restoration and defect rectification, Vital Building Inspections brings practical building knowledge to residential dilapidation inspections.
Contact us to arrange a residential dilapidation inspection in Sydney.
A residential dilapidation report documents the existing condition of a home and relevant surrounding structures before nearby construction or other potentially disruptive works take place.
The inspection records visible defects and conditions that are present at the time of inspection.
Depending on the property and project, this may include:
Photographs are taken to provide a visual record alongside the written observations.
The aim is to establish a clear baseline of the property’s condition before construction begins.
Construction and excavation can sometimes result in concerns about changes to nearby properties.
Having an inspection completed beforehand means there is a record of what was already present.
A residential dilapidation report can help:
The report documents the condition observed during the inspection. It does not, by itself, determine the cause of any damage that may occur later.

A pre construction dilapidation inspection establishes the condition of the property before the works begin.
Where required, a post construction inspection can then be completed after the works.
The two reports can be compared to identify changes in the property’s condition.
This is particularly useful where there are concerns about whether a crack, defect or other condition was present before construction or appeared later.
If construction is taking place next door or nearby, you may want to arrange your own independent record of your home’s condition.
This can be useful for homeowners who want to document existing defects before:
Having the property’s condition documented before the work starts gives you a clear reference point if questions arise later.
