Defect Analysis 

 

Building water penetration problems are complex and pervasive. A rigorous process is used for determining the optimum method of rectification.

 

• Determine the cause of water entry through deconstruction of a typical detail (non-destructive analysis used where appropriate)

• If required, ascertain legal responsibility for the defect

• Survey complete building to quantify different mode of ingress, their frequency and location

• Determine  appropriate method of rectification

• Test assumptions through construction of prototype repairs

• Compile scope of works and / or specification for execution of the necessary works
