How to read inspection reports and defect lists
What is an inspection report?
An inspection report is a defect or snagging list. The inspector explains defects on site, takes photographs and produces an illustrated professional report. Our reports are prepared by building surveyors.
What to look for in a sample report
- Photographs for each defect
- Clear locations that the repair contractor can identify
- Specific descriptions of each issue
- Coverage of all rooms and equipment
Inspection report coverage
Coverage includes living and dining rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, balconies and external walls; ceilings, walls, floors, doors, windows, sanitary fittings and plumbing; and supplied appliances and electrical installations. See the fullInspection service scope。
How does a leakage report differ?
It aims to establish the leak source and includes repair recommendations, cost estimates and loss assessment. It may be signed by government-recognised professionals for court proceedings or engineering meetings. SeeLeakage reports, loss assessments and expert witness services。

Gently tap walls and floors and listen for hollow tiles or plaster.
High-sensitivity moisture testing
Measure moisture in building materials to corroborate suspicious areas found through infrared imaging.
Professional water testing
Run water to check supply and drainage for blockages or leakage.
