The neglect of property maintenance costs Australians hundreds of millions of dollars every year.
Building managers, Organisations & Body Corporates have a duty to keep their buildings safe and in a reasonable condition. Often, they are not aware of the actual condition of the building and have tolerated ineffective band-aid building work.
Recent legal cases mean these entities can now be sued if the property is unsafe or neglected, and timely maintenance can often be a fraction of the cost of major repairs or replacement.
Our experts allow us to combine additional advice in the same visit such as a Timber Pests, Asbestos Identification, Fire Safety & OHS/Safety Inspection & with the engagement of specialists, services such as electrical, mechanical & plumbing.
