Safety Hazards Inspection in Jolimont

Yes. Jolimont has plenty of strata-managed apartments where safety hazards can sit either inside the lot (like faulty power points or window latches) or in common property (like corridor obstructions or stairwell lighting). We document what we can access and highlight which items are likely owners corporation matters, so you know what to raise during due diligence and contract review.

Renovations can introduce mismatched electrical loads, poor-quality DIY wiring, altered stair geometry, and uneven floor transitions where walls were moved or old finishes were removed. We often see missing handrails, trip hazards at thresholds, and wet area slip risks where drainage falls or ventilation weren’t properly addressed. Our inspection focuses on hazards that could cause injury or create fire risk.

We check visible, accessible safety items and note obvious concerns, such as missing or damaged smoke alarms where they should be present, and hazards affecting escape routes. For strata buildings, some equipment may be maintained by the owners corporation and may require records review and specialist testing. We’ll explain what we observed onsite and what further checks may be appropriate.

We can assess accessible balconies for obvious safety risks, including balustrade movement, corrosion, loose fixings, and climbable features that increase fall risk. Jolimont includes buildings of different eras, so balcony construction varies and wear can be uneven. We document what we can safely access and recommend next steps if the balcony shows signs of instability or deterioration.

You’ll receive a written report with photos and clear descriptions of each identified hazard, why it matters, and a practical priority level so you can act quickly. Where relevant, we note whether the hazard is likely within the private lot or could involve common property. If you have questions after reading the report, we can talk you through the findings.
