Great project. Well done to Peter Stroh and his team at Jostan Projects!!

Before you do any major renovations, read this.

We all know it’s important to have the right insurance cover for your buildings and structures. What many don’t realise is that insurers may refuse a payout if they discover your building wasn’t built or maintained to the required standard, or that neglected maintenance led to structural damage.

That’s why structural audits at key points in a structure’s lifecycle are essential:

1️ Before Major Changes
– Prior to renovations, extensions or new installations, an audit confirms that the existing framework can cope with additional loads.

2️ After Severe Events
– Storms, floods, earth tremors or accidental impacts can inflict hidden damage. A prompt audit uncovers these issues before they escalate.

3️ Routine Health Checks
– Every 3–5 years (or as your asset management plan dictates), a periodic audit identifies wear, corrosion or settlement, demonstrating proactive care.

4️ Change of Ownership
– When a property changes hands, an up-to-date structural report reassures both buyer and insurer that the building is sound.
