Maintaining a building’s structural integrity is essential for ensuring the safety of its occupants and preserving its value. However, building issues can arise over time, resulting in significant problems if not addressed. That’s why it’s crucial to identify building issues before they become significant problems. Remedial diagnostic investigations play a crucial role in identifying and addressing building issues. At MJ Engineering Projects, we provide comprehensive diagnostic testing to ensure your building remains in top condition.
Remedial diagnostic investigations are an essential aspect of building maintenance and repair. These investigations are designed to identify and assess building issues before they become significant problems. A remedial diagnostic investigation aims to determine the root cause of a building issue and develop a tailored solution to address the issue.
Remedial diagnostic investigations can identify various issues, including water ingress, structural damage, and building defects. These investigations can involve various methods, including visual inspections, non-destructive testing, and laboratory testing. The diagnostic process typically involves a comprehensive inspection of the building, including its exterior and interior, as well as its systems and components.
During a remedial diagnostic investigation, engineers will assess the building’s condition and identify any issues that require attention. They will then develop a remedial plan to address these issues, including repairs, maintenance, or replacement of building components or systems.
Conducting a remedial diagnostic investigation involves a team of experienced professionals trained to identify and assess building issues accurately. These professionals use the latest technology and equipment to conduct their investigations, ensuring that all issues are identified and addressed.
The goal of remedial diagnostic investigations is to ensure the longevity and value of the building. By identifying and addressing building issues early on, building owners can prevent significant problems from developing and extend the lifespan of the building.
With over 18 years of industry experience, MJ Engineering Projects delivers tailored diagnostic investigations to identify the root cause of building issues. Our consultants use advanced techniques and proven methodologies to provide clear, reliable findings and practical solutions.
We follow a structured process to ensure accuracy and transparency. It begins with a detailed site inspection and report, supported by diagnostic testing where required. From there, we develop specifications that outline methodologies, materials and compliance requirements in line with Australian Standards and NCC obligations. Our team then manages the tender process to engage qualified contractors and oversee the works through to completion. With rigorous quality assurance and clear communication at each stage, we ensure long-lasting, compliant and cost-effective outcomes.
Our remedial consultants will conduct a thorough site inspection, utilising advanced diagnostic tools to assess the extent of damages and identify underlying issues.
They will inspect the areas where defects are reported including areas adjacent/below and provide initial findings in a detailed report, offering clear insights and preliminary recommendations for remediation tailored to the structure's specific needs.
Remedial diagnostic investigations are essential for identifying the root causes of building defects, ensuring effective and lasting solutions. Engaging a specialist is critical to accurately assess issues such as structural deterioration, waterproofing failures, or façade damage. Specialists use advanced diagnostic tools and expertise to develop tailored strategies, avoiding generic or temporary fixes that can escalate costs over time. By understanding the underlying problems, they recommend cost-effective, long-term solutions that address both current issues and future risks. A professional approach ensures the building’s safety, compliance, and durability, protecting the property’s value and minimising unnecessary repair expenses.
For commercial properties, remedial diagnostic investigations are essential to identify and address issues that could compromise safety, compliance and asset value. At MJ Engineering Projects, our team provides comprehensive assessments to uncover structural defects, façade deterioration, water ingress and other complex problems. All investigations are carried out in line with Australian Standards and NCC obligations.
We then provide tailored recommendations that balance technical performance, cost-effectiveness and compliance requirements. Our role includes coordinating stakeholders, reviewing tender submissions and ensuring contractors adhere to the agreed scope of works. With a focus on risk management and long-term performance, we deliver solutions that minimise disruption and protect the ongoing value of commercial assets.
For residential buildings, timely diagnostic investigations help maintain safety, protect property values and resolve issues before they escalate. MJ Engineering Projects works with owners’ corporations, strata managers and individual property owners to identify underlying building defects, including water ingress, spalling, structural cracking and non-compliant construction.

Remedial diagnostic investigations are essential to building maintenance and repair, as they can help identify common building issues that, if left untreated, can lead to significant problems. These investigations can help identify various issues, including water ingress, structural damage, and building defects.
Water ingress is one of the most common issues identified through remedial diagnostic investigations. It occurs when water enters a building through gaps, cracks, or other openings in the building envelope. Water ingress can lead to mould growth, rot, and decay of building materials, which can weaken the structure of the building and create safety hazards for occupants.
Structural damage is another issue that can be identified through remedial diagnostic investigations. Structural damage can occur due to various reasons, such as age, weathering, or improper construction. It can result in cracks, bulges, and other visible signs of damage, which can compromise the safety and stability of the building.
Building defects can also be identified through remedial diagnostic investigations. These defects can range from minor issues, such as cosmetic blemishes, to major issues, such as faulty construction or design. Building defects can affect the building’s safety, function, and value.
These common building issues can lead to significant problems if left untreated. For instance, water ingress can lead to mould growth, creating health hazards for occupants. Structural damage can weaken the building’s structure, making it unsafe for occupancy. Building defects can reduce the building’s value and create safety hazards for occupants.
Therefore, it is crucial to conduct remedial diagnostic investigations to identify and address these issues promptly. Building owners should consider engaging the services of a professional remedial engineer to conduct these investigations to ensure that all issues are identified and addressed effectively.
