Ensure you have a reliable template for your dilapidation reports

Dilapidation reports are crucial for construction projects as they provide solid proof of any damage resulting from your construction work. These reports are typically documented before construction begins to capture a pre-work snapshot and after the project to summarise the post-construction condition of the property. This process is important even if there were no complaints or visible damages during the construction phase.

Ultimately, dilapidation reports help create a comprehensive and verifiable record of any changes to surrounding buildings and infrastructure caused by the construction.

Whether you choose to run your dilapidation reports on Word, Excel or Dashpivot, any good template should include the following sections:

  • Date of dilapidation inspection
  • Description of the area
  • Survey location details
  • Key inspection items
  • Location plan view
  • Crack mapping
  • Inspection photos
  • Signoff field for the engineer completing the report

Alternatively, you can download our free dilapidation report template and customise it to suit your project needs.
