Building Forensic Investigation Services in Singapore
At Ezzogenics, we provide expert building forensic investigation services in Singapore to diagnose the root causes of structural failures, façade defects, and construction anomalies. Our investigative approach combines engineering expertise with advanced diagnostic tools to uncover hidden problems, document failures, and recommend lasting corrective actions for commercial, industrial, and residential buildings.
Building forensic investigation involves the systematic analysis of building systems and components to determine the cause of damage, defects, or failures. Unlike standard inspections, forensic investigations are problem-driven and typically carried out after:
Water leakage or façade detachment
Structural cracks or deformation
Unexpected material degradation
Persistent building performance issues
Post-incident failure analysis (e.g., falling tiles, cracked beams)
Our investigations help stakeholders understand how and why failures occur—essential for insurance claims, litigation support, or corrective engineering.
Our forensic investigation services are useful for:
Buildings with recurring façade or waterproofing failures
Post-incident investigations (e.g., falling concrete, collapsed fixtures)
Disputes involving building defects or workmanship
Verification of repair works or root-cause validation
Litigation support and expert witness reports
Whether you manage a commercial high-rise or a residential estate, we help you get the full picture behind the problem before deciding on repairs.

FAQ
What’s the difference between a forensic investigation and a standard inspection?
Standard inspections look for general compliance and visible issues. Forensic investigations go deeper, using testing and technical analysis to determine the cause and origin of specific problems.
Do you work with legal teams or insurance companies?
Yes. Our reports are suitable for insurance claims and dispute resolution, and we can provide expert witness support if needed.
Can this be done without disrupting tenants or operations?
In most cases, yes. We use non-destructive testing methods and coordinate our work to minimize disruption to occupants.
What is the cost of a forensic investigation?
Cost varies by scope, size of building, and type of testing required. Contact us for a customized quote based on your issue.
