Your property - our profession!

We prepare building surveys for your property

Building surveys - preservation of evidence procedures, expert opinions on damage to buildings 

Recognizing structural hazards - averting collateral damage

Whether environmental influences, vandalism, cracks, moisture or subsidence - a professional expert opinion provides you with clarity about the causes and the specific need for renovation or repair.

ESTATE ENGINEERS analyzes building damage objectively, professionally and comprehensibly. We prepare legally compliant construction reports and well-founded damage assessments for investors, owners and developers - as a reliable basis for technical, economic and legal decisions concerning your property.

An expert assessment is particularly important in the event of construction defects during the building phase or damage that falls under the statutory warranty obligation. Differing opinions between the client and construction company regarding causes and responsibilities often lead to conflicts or legal proceedings. This makes independent, documented expert opinions or preservation of evidence that can be used in court in the event of a dispute all the more important.

Because real estate is also about stability

ESTATE ENGINEERS supports you not only in the assessment, but also with specific recommendations for action to limit damage and avert danger - so that dangers are recognised at an early stage and consequential damage is avoided.

When it comes to building surveys, our focus is always on clarity, transparency and practicable solutions that give you certainty in your decision-making - quickly, independently and competently.

ESTATE ENGINEERS - your building surveyor for building quality and asset protection.
