Building Problem Checker: What Is Wrong?

Pick what you see in the house or building to get likely causes, who to call first and the service page that fits.

These tools give planning-level estimates from typical values and the details you enter. They are not quotes or engineering, legal or safety advice, and results depend on your actual property, building, rules and choices. Only a conversation and a visit can confirm what a project needs, and we give you a written estimate before design work begins.

How it works

Four quick steps.

  1. 01

    Pick the area

    Structure, water, roof and exterior, layout and comfort, permits and rules, or business space.

  2. 02

    Tick what you notice

    Check every sign that applies.

  3. 03

    See the priority

    Try the basics, plan a visit, fix soon or stop and check first.

  4. 04

    Open the service page

    Each cause links to the service that fits.

Tips

  • Take dated photographs and check again after rain.
  • Keep people away from anything that looks unsafe until it is checked.
  • Write down when you first noticed each sign.
Questions

About this tool.

Does this replace an inspection?

No. It is a checklist. A visit and sometimes an engineer find the real cause.

What counts as urgent?

A bulging ceiling, a leaning wall, rapidly widening cracks or a porch that moves. Keep people away and call.

Can several causes look the same?

Yes, which is why we look carefully and bring in engineers when needed.
