City Rail Link Condition Assessments
To safeguard the buildings surrounding this landmark project, Babbage’s Building Surveying team took on a critical role: carrying out comprehensive condition assessments of more than 300 properties across the rail corridor.
From pre-construction through to post-construction, our surveyors meticulously documented each property’s condition, producing robust Schedules of Condition that provided:
Verified records tracking changes across every project stage
Clear, reliable evidence to identify and manage any structural impacts
Documentation that supported quick, fair resolution of disputes, remediation, or claims
Our assessments gave stakeholders the confidence that every building was protected with independent, expert oversight. This proactive approach not only safeguarded property owners but also helped keep one of New Zealand’s most ambitious infrastructure projects moving forward smoothly.
The value of our contribution was recognised when Babbage was awarded Building Consultancy Team of the Year at the 2020 RICS New Zealand Awards – a proud moment for our team and proof of the impact we deliver on projects that shape the nation.
