If you suspect your builder, contractor, or tradesperson has delivered work that doesn’t meet minimum structural standards, you may need an independent structural engineering report to support your case. At Mellan Consulting Engineers, we provide professional, RPEQ-certified negligent building work reports across the Gold Coast, assisting homeowners, certifiers, solicitors, and insurers.
We inspect and report on:
– Non-compliant structural framing, footing systems, or slab work
– Defective retaining walls, decks, or roof structures
– Use of substandard or inappropriate construction materials
– Improper installation of beams, columns, or connections
– Building works that fail to comply with engineering design or the National Construction Code
Our reports provide a clear, objective analysis of the workmanship and its compliance with relevant codes, standards, and engineering drawings. We include photographic documentation, engineering commentary, and recommendations for rectification or escalation.
These reports are suitable for submission to QBCC, legal representatives, certifiers, or building dispute tribunals, and can be used to support formal complaints or insurance claims.
If you believe structural work on your property may be negligent or non-compliant, see our negligent building reporting service page below to request an expert assessment.
