Structural reporting that stands up to scrutiny

At Morse Building Consultancy, our building reports give you clarity when it matters most. Whether you’re dealing with insurance claims, dispute resolution, compliance concerns or structural damage, we deliver independent reports that are precise, balanced, and built on over 38 years of real-world experience.

Our nationwide team of licensed building consultants and registered engineers specialise in forensic investigation and site-based reporting. From identifying structural failure to separating storm-related damage from pre-existing issues, our building reports are grounded in construction knowledge and aligned with the National Construction Code and Australian Standards.

Every report is designed to provide the full picture—so you can move forward with confidence.

Our building reports are tailored to meet the needs of insurers, brokers, strata managers, legal professionals, builders, developers, and private clients. Each report is structured to ensure clarity, accountability, and actionable next steps.

Depending on your needs, your building report may include:

    • A detailed structural building report prepared by a licensed consultant or registered engineer

    • Clear findings on causation, extent of damage, and contributing factors

    • Identification of non-compliance with codes, standards, or workmanship

    • Photographic evidence and site-specific observations

    • Scope of works and repair recommendations

    • Professional opinion on safety, habitability, or structural adequacy

    • Alignment with claim, litigation, or rectification pathways

Our process: how we work

Scope of works to support confident repairs and claims

A clear, well-prepared scope of works can mean the difference between project delays and smooth progress. At MBC, our scopes are developed by experienced building consultants and structural engineers who understand the practical realities of construction, compliance, and insurance.

Whether you’re an insurer seeking clarity on reinstatement costs, a strata manager budgeting for rectification, or a legal professional preparing for mediation, our scopes of work give you a reliable, itemised breakdown of what’s required.

We ensure every scope aligns with findings from our building reports, delivering continuity, clarity, and defensible documentation that stands up to review.
