HOME > EXPERTISE > PROBLEM ANALYSIS & DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Often in the building industry, substantial expenditure and effort is devoted to the litigation of waterproofing issues. We encourage a collaborative approach as a more efficient and cost effective alternative for the resolution of disputes over defects.

 

Our collaborative approach is focused on firstly determining the facts by analysis of the building problems and secondly by facilitating a dispute resolution process in collaboration with all stakeholders.
