Building work follows the National Building Regulations and the SANS 10400 series, which include requirements on dampness and moisture protection, and new homes fall under the NHBRC warranty scheme — making dated damp and moisture records valuable at handover and in disputes. A clear, measured record helps document a property against the applicable standard; confirm the requirements that apply.
