About Illawarra Building Consultants (IBC)
IBC are specialist building consultants, highly experienced in all issues of building deficiencies, maintenance and material and workmanship failures affecting Strata buildings.
I’m Martin Donelan, the principal consultant in IBC. I started as a carpenter, then builder, undertaking extensions and renovations in the Sutherland Shire for 20 years. For the last 20 years I have worked as an office-based project manager and building consultant. After managing an engineering consultancy with 10 staff for some years I established my own consultancy 13 years ago.
I have inspected over 1200 buildings and prepared Water Penetration Reports, Technical Roof Inspections, Building Defects Reports and more. In addition to 40 years full-time construction industry experience, I qualified as a Mediator 20 years ago with I.A.M.A. If Mediation with a building dispute fails, I provide Expert Witness Litigation Reports.
