Trusted building repair, redevelopment & civil solutions powered by MangoHouse.
Many of Dadar's residential buildings were built well before today's design codes, and some have stood for more than seven decades. MangoHouse carries out structural audits in Dadar, Mumbai that tell a housing society, in plain language, how its building is really doing and what needs attention first.
In Hindu Colony, Parsi Colony and the lanes around Shivaji Park, it is common to find load-bearing masonry walls working together with later RCC additions — extra floors, enclosed balconies or new staircases. These mixed systems behave differently and need an engineer who looks at how loads travel through the whole building, not just at surface cracks. Our audits in Dadar pay special attention to old timber or steel members, joints between old and new construction, and water entry from terraces and sunken toilets that were never designed for modern plumbing.
A structural audit is not just a formality. It is the only reliable way to find hidden corrosion, weak concrete and overloaded members before they become visible failures. The model bye-laws for Maharashtra housing societies require periodic audits — every five years for buildings aged 15–30 and every three years beyond 30.
We work with housing societies, landlords and property owners in Dadar West, Dadar East, Shivaji Park, Hindu Colony, Parsi Colony, Portuguese Church area, Naigaon and Kohinoor Square area, along with nearby localities.
Yes. Old buildings often look sound from outside while beams, joists or embedded steel deteriorate out of sight. An audit checks what cannot be seen at a glance and gives the committee a documented baseline — which is also useful if the society later considers redevelopment.
A visual inspection is the starting point, but non-destructive tests are needed to judge concrete quality and corrosion that cannot be seen.
The report should be prepared and signed by a qualified structural engineer registered with the relevant authority.
