Awesim Building Consultants provides independent building consultancy, site investigations, Expert Witness Reports and Scott Schedules across Southern Highlands and Tablelands and surrounding New South Wales districts. We assist homeowners, builders, owners corporations, insurers and legal representatives where defective, incomplete or disputed building work needs clear technical investigation.

The Southern Highlands and Tablelands includes heritage towns, rural-residential property, cold-climate construction and fast-growing corridors south-west of Sydney. Our role is independent: the consultant investigates the available evidence, records observed conditions and explains opinions within the scope of the engagement.

Independent evidence for regional NSW matters

Where expert evidence is required, an on-site investigation may be necessary. Awesim confirms whether attendance is appropriate after reviewing the available information.
