The Scotia Group is a licensed builder with over 31 years of experience in the strata sector, providing 24/7 services across Victoria. We have extensive knowledge of the strata “eco-system” and understand the complexities of multiple stakeholders, which is crucial to support our customers’ needs for successful building repairs, maintenance, and restoration services. We partner closely with underwriting agencies, insurance brokers and assessors to provide service to their clients.
These services include:
Insurance repairs: Our team of ten experienced supervisors and estimators conduct inspections (on site or virtual), prepare reports, and provide quotes for remediation. We also arrange make-safes and collaborate with specialist consultants such as engineers and assessors. We oversee all aspects of a job from start to finish.
Insurance restoration: Our team of six restoration technicians, most of whom are IICRC accredited, specialize in microbial, fire, smoke, and water damage restoration. Our technicians also handle report preparation, scopes, and quotes.
Out of Hours Strata Concierge service: Our clients redirect their calls to us outside regular business hours. We always have a dedicated team of locally based staff available to handle calls, arrange emergency make-safes, and provide client updates and reporting.
Non-insurance repairs, maintenance, and restoration: We offer the same services to Owners Corporations and lot owners, undertaking major and minor works. This comprehensive approach reduces complexity and addresses maintenance repairs before insurance works commence.
With our team of 21 in-house staff, supported by an extensive external network of quality contractors, we ensure seamless coordination across all our projects.
In summary, Scotia is a reputable builder with expertise in strata services. We offer insurance repairs and restoration, non- insurance repairs and maintenance, and reliable out-of-hours assistance. With our experienced team and comprehensive range of services, we deliver high-quality results to our clients.
