When this service is needed

Extensions and verandas are often in worse condition than the main building: deterioration, seasonal deformation, moisture and deficiencies in previous repairs affect them more quickly. A dispute may concern an unsafe condition, the need for repairs, suitability for continued use or the justification for demolition.

An expert examination helps describe the current condition of these structures and show why the problem is not confined to a single board or window.

Questions commonly addressed

  • What signs of deterioration and damage are present in the extension or veranda?
  • Do the defects affect the load-bearing or enclosing parts of the structure?
  • Which risks of use can already be identified at the inspection stage?
  • How can the conclusions be used in a dispute between owners or with the contractor?

Practical situations

  • the technical condition of an old veranda in a country house is disputed
  • deterioration of an extension needs to be documented before going to court
