Connolly homes
In Connolly, our inspections cover properties in the 6027 postcode, where the geology of coastal sand over Tamala Limestone can influence structural findings.

We also commonly find Cracked Roof Mortar in 64.3% of reports and Bedroom 2 Ceiling/Cornice Join Cracks in 64.3% of reports. Given the established housing stock, often brick-veneer on timber frames, we pay close attention to issues like concealed slab edges, found in 42.9% of reports, which can be linked to the local ground conditions.
