Common building defects in Mambourin VIC
Most of our Mambourin work is pre-handover inspections, with slab, frame and fixing visits alongside. Across those reports two themes keep coming back: the roof, with broken tile underlaps, cappings screwed through the top and dented sheets, and the slab edge, with overhang past the frame, honeycombing and cracks. The paint, plaster and caulking items are there too, but they are not what costs owners money later.
Roof items appear in most of our Mambourin handover reports.
Slab edge problems show up at frame stage.
Exhaust ducts are found disconnected from their cowls.
Downpipes are found loose from the stormwater line.
Painting and caulking items fill out every handover list.
