Severe storms can cause significant structural damage to homes, decks, retaining walls, carports, and roof systems. If your property has been impacted, an urgent structural engineering report is often required to support an insurance claim or guide repair work.
At Mellan Consulting Engineers, we provide fast, qualified storm damage reports for properties across the Gold Coast, including cyclone, wind, impact, and flood-related structural failures. We prioritise emergency inspections and deliver professional documentation for submission to insurance providers, loss assessors, or certifiers.
We inspect and report on:
– Collapsed or compromised retaining walls
– Displaced roof framing, rafters, battens, and sheeting
– Storm-damaged carports, pergolas, patios, and decks
– Structural damage from falling trees or flying debris
– Water damage causing movement or foundation instability
All reports are issued by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) and formatted to meet insurer and builder requirements. Where necessary, we can also provide Form 15 or Form 12 certification for rectification work.
