This form does not constitute a certification or a report confirming that your building has been inspected or is free from any potential defects or liabilities. It is a tool for raising awareness and monitoring building maintenance. It is strongly recommended that you consult resources, experts and professionals, building services, tradespeople and suppliers to obtain advice, assess the condition of a component and determine the appropriate preventive and maintenance measures.
To complete this section, a careful and thorough visual inspection of all observable building components is required as a minimum. For your safety, if you believe your building is unsafe, the inspection should be carried out by one or more competent individuals in the field.
Once you have carried out the required inspection, please indicate the condition that best describes each component.
