What is Inherent Defect Warranty Auditing and how our service is helps the client? Inherent Defect Warranty Auditing (IDWA) is a process of inspecting a building or structure to identify any potential defects that may not be apparent at the time of construction.

Our surveyors are experienced, efficient and can be on site promptly. We know a latent defect exists at the time of construction, however it could have gone undetected until after completion of construction, even years after. Something as simple as a structural beam which is correct in colour, grade and size could still be a potential problem if it’s under the strength requirements. This is one of many examples which we look out for during our audits. It’s important for you to be fully informed regarding situation you’re in. And worth keeping in mind the Latent Damage Act 1986 provides claimants with three years, as of the date in which they became aware, should have known or found a problem, in order to issue proceedings.
