Strata Leak Investigation
Strata Leak Investigation
In a strata building, a leak is also a question of responsibility and record. The investigation establishes the source and documents it in a form councils, managers and insurers can act on.
Symptoms we're called for
- Water in a unit or common area with no visible source
- Recurring damage after previous repairs
- Unit-to-unit disputes about cause and responsibility
- Insurer or warranty questions needing evidence
Property types
- Strata corporations and townhouse complexes
- Mixed-use and rental buildings under management
- Common property: risers, parkades, roofs, envelopes
Methods used
- Acoustic correlation on pressurized lines and risers
- Thermal and moisture scanning across shared assemblies
- Zone isolation to narrow the failing run
- CCTV or borescope inspection of accessible drains
Limitations, stated plainly
- We locate and document; repairs and remediation are performed by licensed trades
- Shared-assembly responsibility is a legal question; our report provides evidence
- Access to units requires owner or manager coordination
What you receive
- An evidence-based written report for councils and insurers
- Zone-by-zone findings with photographs and readings
- Clear next steps for repair and verification
Next steps
- Circulate the report to council, manager and insurer
- Commission the repair with the relevant trade
- Re-verify after repair to close the file
