Noticed cracks, sloping floors, or damp patches? We check the structure, measure how it has moved, and tell you what is going on in plain language.
Maybe you have noticed cracks or uneven floors in your own home. Maybe you are about to buy a place and want to know what you are getting into. Either way, we tell you what is happening to the structure and what it means for you.
A registered engineer inspects the property, measures how it has moved, and explains the condition, the likely cause, and what to do next. Works for the home you live in or one you are thinking of buying.
Most structural inspections only happen Monday to Friday. That usually means taking a day off work just to be home when the engineer turns up.
We do it differently. Book a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday, and you can be there in person without using your annual leave.
You get more than a yes or no. You get a detailed written report, prepared by registered engineers and reviewed by a Chartered Professional Engineer. It sets out what we found, why it is happening, and what to do, with the measurements and photos to back it up.
Our engineers have designed a lot of homes across Victoria, including work for a major national homebuilder. Because we know how these houses go together, we know how they move.
Government has engaged our team on significant public structures. We bring the same care and independence to your home.
A floor level survey shows how a home has moved. FLIR thermal imaging helps find things a visual check misses, like moisture, missing insulation, and framing gaps such as missing noggins.
We don't sell repairs, so there is nothing behind our advice except the data. Every report is reviewed by a Chartered Professional Engineer before it reaches you.
Send a quick enquiry telling us what you have noticed. We confirm your fixed price and find a weekend or public holiday time that suits you.
A registered engineer comes out, does the floor level survey and thermal imaging, and records the structure.
You get a written engineer's report covering the findings, the likely cause, and what to do next.
Our engineers have worked on public assets and homes across Victoria. Here is what some of the people we have worked with had to say.
The inspection identified the root cause of water ingress and several other issues, explained clearly with supporting thermal imagery and floor-level data. Detailed, easy to understand, and gave us complete confidence in the outcome., Homeowner, Braybrook VIC
Over two years of exceptional service inspecting and rectifying public assets, with a high level of technical expertise and a meticulous approach to every project., Infrastructure Coordinator, Victorian local government
In-depth knowledge of structural engineering and a real ability to solve complex problems and deliver effective solutions. A significant asset to every project., Building Projects Officer, Victorian local government
Excellent technical knowledge, and a great ability to explain complex structural concepts clearly and practically. Reliable, responsive, and easy to work with., Senior Draftsperson, residential home builder
Most movement in Melbourne homes comes from reactive clay soil, which swells and shrinks with moisture through the seasons. Nearby trees, drainage problems, or the original footing design can make it worse. The cracking and sloping you see is usually a sign of this ground movement. Our assessment measures it and works out the likely cause.
A building inspector gives you a general overview of a property. A structural engineer looks specifically at the structure: how it is moving, why, and what it means, backed by measurements like a floor level survey. If your worry is cracking, movement, or foundations, a structural engineer is the one to call.
Every assessment includes a full visual structural inspection, a floor level survey to measure how the home has moved, and FLIR thermal imaging to help pick up hidden problems like moisture, missing insulation, or framing gaps. You get a clear written engineer's report with photos that explains the findings, the likely cause, and what to do next.
We work to a fixed price, agreed before we come out, so there are no surprises. Send an enquiry with a few details about the property and we will confirm your price and a time.
Yes. We offer Saturday, Sunday, and public holiday appointments at the same fixed price, so you can be there without taking time off work.
Yes. We check the structural condition of a property so you know what you are buying before you commit. That covers movement, cracking, and signs of hidden problems, set out in a clear report you can act on.
We are independent and we don't sell repairs, so our advice is based on the data rather than trying to sell you work. Every report is reviewed by a Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng, Engineers Australia) before it reaches you.
Tell us a bit about the property and what you have noticed. We will confirm your fixed price and sort out a time.
