W&G Report
Weathertight & General Reports (W&G)
When a moisture management issue has been identified within a building a non-invasive W&G report can initially comment on the existing condition of the exterior cladding systems, compliance of original installation, likely cause of issue and likely on going durability and maintenance issues.
If as a result of the initial assessment, it is found that there is a need to fully assess the extent of the moisture management issue then an invasive investigation can then be undertaken. The report provided in association with the invasive investigation may provide adequate information to identify the need to either undertake full or targeted remediation. It will also provide guidance on whether a new Building Consent is required before undertaking any remediation work.
