Structural Inspections & Assessments

We are experienced and fully qualified to carry out structural, mechanical and civil inspections. Our rigorous quality process takes care of investigation, reports, certification and commissioning. 

Structural Inspections

Are you planning on buying or selling property? Whether it is Residential, commercial or industrial, we can help.  Property choices are costly, and getting the correct information from a specialist can save you the hassle, time and money. A structural inspection can help assist both buyers and sellers of residential and commercial property, determine the whole condition of the property at present and can also give an indication of costs to remedy any issues found. When determining the condition of a property, there are a number of areas to consider, foundations, roofs, interior, exterior,  workmanship and much more. 

​A structrual inspection can help you:
  • Be satisfied and confident with the soundness of your purchase
  • Identify visually available evidence of issues
  • Identity any problems which may become apparent after purchase
  • Confirm your initial impressions - good or bad
  • As a negotiating tool- where defects are found.

Seismic Evaluations

ISA - Initial Seismic Assessments
​

DSA - Detailed Seismic Assessments

Buildings which are built to the current New Zealand Building Code requirements are intended to withstand forces from earthquakes. Some older buildings were not designed with consideration for earthquakes and may be “earthquake risk or earthquake prone” buildings. It is important to check seismic performance of your building not only for health and safety but also for insurance and funding from banks.

Burrett & Associates Ltd has experienced structural Engineers who are competent in assessing the performance of a building during a seismic event. We carry out both Initial Seismic Assessments (ISA) and Detailed Seismic Assessments (DSA).
​
Contact us today to check your buildings seismic performance.

IEP Reports

An IEP rating which is an Initial Evaluation Procedure and is what comes out as a figure or gives you a percentage of what is called a New Building Standard. An IEP report and an earthquake rating are essentially one and the same.

Rebuild Valuations

It is the owner’s responsibility to determine that the sum insured on your property is enough to rebuild your home/ property, and you need to be sure to keep it up to date. It’s important this figure is accurate to avoid under or over-insuring your property.Full replacement cost rebuild valuation ultimately calculates the cost to rebuild the existing residence and other site features in the event of complete destruction of property including demolition and professional services.
​
Burrett & Associates Ltd can provide you with a replacement insurance valuation. Contact us today to find out more.
