Expert Reports & Surveys
What's included

Everything your renovation includes, with no one for you to coordinate.

Damp and leak diagnosis

We identify the exact source of damp: capillarity, condensation, roof or facade leaks. In Cádiz, the high relative humidity and proximity to the sea mean that condensation and salt problems are especially common on ground floors and north-facing facades.

Crack and fissure analysis

We evaluate cracks and fissures to determine whether they are superficial or indicate structural problems. We use tell-tales (plaster crack monitors), crack gauges and, where necessary, supplementary tests. The Cádiz construction typology, with load-bearing walls and old floor structures, requires specialised analysis.

Insurance company survey

We prepare counter-surveys and independent reports to defend your rights against the insurer. We document the damage with photographs, plans and measurements, and quantify the repair cost so you receive fair compensation.

Judicial expert reports

We prepare expert reports with full judicial validity, signed by chartered technicians who can ratify them before the courts of Cádiz. We defend our reports at oral hearings with technical rigour and clear exposition.

Building pathology study

We carry out comprehensive building pathology studies ranging from sample collection to laboratory testing. Especially useful in rehabilitations of historic buildings in the old town, where pathologies may have been developing for decades.

Salt and corrosion damage report

The marine environment of Cádiz causes specific damage: reinforcement corrosion, cryptoflorescence on facades and mortar degradation. We diagnose the extent of the damage and propose specific treatments using materials resistant to the saline environment.

FAQ

What you ask us most.

Why do I need an expert report?

An expert report is needed when you want to claim from insurance for property damage, defend yourself in a lawsuit over construction defects, or simply diagnose a problem (damp, cracks) before a renovation. In Cádiz it is especially useful for documenting damage caused by salt air.

Is the report valid before a judge?

Yes, our reports are signed by chartered technicians and meet all formal requirements for submission as expert evidence in legal proceedings. The technician can also ratify it at an oral hearing if the judge requires it.

Can I use the report to claim from insurance?

Absolutely. In fact, it is the most effective tool for negotiating with the insurer. An independent technical report with photographs, measurements and damage quantification strengthens your position and usually achieves compensation above the insurer's initial offer.

How long does it take to prepare?

A basic report is delivered within 5-7 working days after the visit. Judicial reports or those requiring laboratory tests may take 2 to 4 weeks. In urgent cases, we offer an expedited service upon request.

When you need a reliable technical diagnosis to resolve an insurance claim, defend your position in court or identify the real cause of persistent damp, a rigorous expert report makes all the difference. In Cádiz, where environmental salinity, the age of buildings and local construction characteristics generate recurring pathologies, having experts who know the terrain is essential.

An expert report is a technical document prepared by a qualified professional that analyses, diagnoses and assesses the damage or defects of a property. Its usefulness ranges from claims against insurers to presentation as evidence in legal proceedings, as well as planning repair works. In Cádiz, the combination of an ageing housing stock, an aggressive marine environment and traditional construction techniques generates a range of pathologies that require specialised knowledge for correct interpretation.

Our team of surveyors has extensive experience with the most common pathologies in Cádiz buildings. From the oxidation of metal reinforcements due to high environmental salinity, to rising damp affecting ground floors across half the old town, to render detachment on west-facing facades. Each report we produce combines technical rigour with accessible language, so that courts, insurance companies and property owners alike understand the diagnosis and proposed solutions.
