STRATA REPORTS

Strata Reports – Structural Engineering Services

Introduction

At Mellan Consulting Engineers, we specialise in professional strata reports, providing detailed structural assessments to support homeowners and property owners in strata-managed properties. When disputes arise regarding structural damage, liability, or repair responsibility, our reports serve as clear, unbiased evidence to present to strata committees, insurance providers, or legal representatives.

Disagreements over structural defects, maintenance responsibilities, or damage causes are common in strata properties. Strata management may argue that certain repairs fall under the homeowner’s responsibility, leaving property owners with unexpected costs. Our strata reports help clarify structural accountability, ensuring that homeowners have the necessary engineering evidence to support their case and demonstrate legitimate claims.

By conducting site inspections, engineering analysis, and professional reporting, we help property owners protect their investment and ensure that repairs and maintenance are handled fairly within the strata framework.

When Do You Need a Strata Report?

A strata report is necessary in a variety of structural scenarios, particularly when clarifying responsibilities between homeowners and strata management. Some of the most common reasons for requesting a structural strata report include:

Structural Damage Claims

Damage to walls, foundations, roof structures, and retaining walls often requires formal engineering assessment to determine the cause and responsibility. Whether the damage is due to poor construction, environmental factors, or maintenance issues, our strata reports help homeowners present accurate and independent evidence.

Water Ingress & Moisture Damage

Our strata reports identify leaks and drainage issues that can significantly impact structural integrity. Our engineers assess moisture damage, rising damp, waterproofing failures, and plumbing-related leaks to determine the source and provide technical recommendations for repair.

Boundary & Common Property Disputes

Strata developments include shared spaces, fences, boundary walls, and retaining structures, which can often be the subject of disputes. Our strata reports provide assessments to determine whether repairs fall under the homeowner’s or strata’s responsibility.

House Movement & Foundation Subsidence

Settlement and movement in strata properties can lead to cracking, uneven floors, and misaligned doors/windows, indicating foundation issues. Our assessments evaluate soil conditions, subsidence causes, and necessary rectifications, ensuring accurate reporting on the stability of the structure.

Repair & Maintenance Disputes

When strata committees deny repair claims, our reports provide the necessary engineering evidence to clarify responsibilities and support fair resolutions. We help homeowners navigate negotiations with strata managers, ensuring that required structural repairs are appropriately addressed.
