A structured defect-diagnosis tool designed to help identify the most likely mechanism behind a building problem before remedial decisions are made.
Moisture-related defects, cracking, movement, waterproofing problems, drainage-linked symptoms, timber moisture issues, and other recurring building pathology patterns.
The interview uses targeted questions to assess symptom pattern, defect location, construction context and observed behaviour. From that, it narrows the most likely defect pathway and highlights appropriate next steps.
It does not replace an in-person inspection, opening-up works, specialist testing or engineering advice where those are required.
Property owners, buyers, landlords, survey-led users, contractors and tradespeople who need a clearer starting point for diagnosis.
Because the wrong diagnosis leads to the wrong repair. Better early-stage reasoning improves decisions, reduces wasted spend and helps focus further inspection properly.
