AusFirst Engineering
Independent building defect investigations for owners, strata, builders, insurers and disputes, with clear findings on defects, workmanship and likely causes.
Independent engineering
Our defect assessments focus on observable evidence, construction details and likely mechanisms. The aim is to identify the defect, explain why it has occurred and define the next engineering or repair step without unnecessary ambiguity.
Our reports are written to explain the observed condition, the engineering mechanism, the relevant evidence and the practical next step. Where further testing or specialist input is required, that limitation is stated clearly.
How it works
We review the claim, available documents and the question the report must answer before attending site.
Site evidence is documented through measurements, photographs and engineering observations relevant to the reported damage.
The report sets out the evidence, reasoning, conclusion and recommended next step in language the recipient can act on.
