Dilapidation Reports Brisbane

When demolition and construction in Brisbane involves heavy machinery and excavation, there's a real chance of impact on adjoining properties. A Brisbane dilapidation report captures the precise condition of those neighbouring buildings, roads, kerbs, bridges and assets — before and after construction — as protection and as the basis for answering any claim.

Why Brisbane

Brisbane's building boom makes the baseline essential.

With the lead-up to the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Cross River Rail, Brisbane Metro and sustained South East Queensland growth, Brisbane is building at pace. AusDilaps is a Queensland-based, family-owned firm — and we've documented some of the city's most sensitive works, including the heritage-listed buildings surrounding Queen's Wharf and heritage items adjoining Brisbane Airport.

  • Council certification requiring pre- and post-construction condition reports
  • Works adjoining heritage-listed buildings or council assets
  • Major SEQ infrastructure — rail, road and Games-related precincts
  • Bond protection on works affecting kerbing, roadways, drainage or pathways
Proven in Queensland
