Common-Property Water Ingress - Resolved, Documented, Closed.

Water ingress in common property means an unhappy committee, an insurance question, and pressure on you from every direction. We make it manageable.

How we know

The cause is found, not estimated

  • A stripped podium deck under controlled flood test to reproduce the ingress

    Controlled flood testing

  • A borescope fed into a wall cavity through the window sill

    Cavity camera inspection

  • A moisture meter reading taken against a damaged wall lining

    Moisture mapping

  • Thermal camera image showing a plume of trapped moisture behind a lining

What you get

What we do for strata managers

  • Complimentary Diagnostic Report

    For buildings with an active or pending insurance claim, we attend site and provide a full diagnostic report at no charge: cause of failure, scope of works and a defensible cost estimate you can use to lodge or support the claim.

  • Committee-Ready Reporting

    Plain-language cause of failure, photographs, and tiered repair options with budgets. Everything the committee needs to make a decision in one meeting, not four.

  • Insurer & Assessor Liaison

    We deal with the insurer and loss adjuster alongside you, with documentation written to stand up to their scrutiny.

  • Common-Property Specialisation

    Balconies, planter boxes, box gutters, podiums, basements, facades, stairwells and lift wells: the areas where multi-unit buildings leak.

  • Managed Delivery

    Scheduled works with resident notification, safe access and minimal disruption, and all trades under one contract, so there is no finger-pointing between contractors.

  • Records the OC Can Rely On

    Warranty documentation, compliance certificates and photographic close-out reports for the owners corporation's records.

  • Ongoing Protection

    Scheduled maintenance plans. Membranes, sealant joints, flashings and drainage inspected and maintained before minor wear becomes the next claim.

Strata Community Association

We work inside the strata industry, not adjacent to it

Most of the buildings we are called to are common property, and most of the people who call us manage them for a living. We are members of the Strata Community Association, we understand what a committee has to be shown before it can approve a spend, and we write for that meeting rather than for a site foreman.

Strata Community Association
  • Reports formatted for a committee paper, not a quote
  • Staged works around residents who are still living there
  • One repeatable rectification where a defect repeats across a building
  • Records the owners corporation can hold for the life of the asset
