When damage occurs or is suspected in properties and facilities, it is essential to understand the cause, scope and consequences. RISE offers qualified damage investigations, condition assessments and status inspections of buildings and infrastructure, from individual components to complex systems, supporting decision-making in both technical and legal contexts.
Deficiencies and faults in buildings and infrastructure can lead to increased costs, safety risks, legal issues, and reduced service life. RISE assists property owners, contractors, and insurance companies in understanding damage and preventing future problems through independent damage investigations and condition assessments of both buildings and facilities — from individual components to complex systems. We combine technical expertise with independent analysis to provide reliable support for disputes, insurance claims, and renovation projects.
What we investigate
RISE’s expertise spans the entire construction sector and brings together skills from several specialist fields: building physics, timber engineering, infrastructure, piping and networks, as well as concrete. We work both reactively on acute damage cases and proactively through preventive investigations and risk assessments.
Among others, we investigate:
- Piping systems, sprinkler systems and district heating networks
- Concrete structures such as swimming pools and parking garages
- Balconies, façades, windows and doors
- Water mains in the ground and within buildings
- Timber constructions and timber-based building products
- Indoor environment, moisture and building physics
- Moisture damage
- Fire damage
- Corrosion damage
- Review of construction documents and acting as technical advisor in disputes
