Following the committee meeting on Monday night I talked with our architect, Steve Skurnik, re getting a complete condition report done on Romana. His email response, detailed below, was very encouraging and will doubtless save us a few thousand dollars:
Matt
Just confirming our conversation and advising that, as part of their works, the contractor will be required to undertake an inspection and prepare a dilapidation report of the building and surrounding sites and structures.
I propose to do this as a joint inspection with the Builder.
That way Servant’s will be aware of all building defects evident before works commence
No need to undertake a separate inspection then!.
Cheers
Steve Skurnik
