PRESENTER OF THE COURSE

Marisia Robus

Marisia Robus is the owner of Gauteng Property Inspections. She is a NABISA Certified Master Inspector (National Association of Building Inspectors of SA) and an executive director of NABISA. She is one of only 40 ITC Certified Roof Inspectors (Institute of Timber Construction) as well as an asbestos inspector. She is the only property inspector in South Africa with those credentials and the only female property and roof inspector in the country.

She has 12 years of construction experience with her father in their construction company and more than 10 years of property inspection experience.

When she started at the construction company, she went to the site every day and was taught by her father about all aspects of construction, from setting out to finishing. That is why she knows what happened behind the defect; be it a crack or damp, and why she can accurately advise on how to repair, not patch it.

Marisia has done 1 000’s of inspections, including maintenance inspections and 10-year maintenance plans for numerous sectional title complexes, commercial and industrial properties, pre-purchase and maintenance inspections for houses and due diligence inspections for property investors of houses, commercial and residential properties.

She is a visiting lecturer at UJ. She lectures the final year School of the Building Science University of Johannesburg students on maintenance, explaining maintenance and guiding them on how to do maintenance inspections. She was also asked to lecture 4th Year Honours students in Construction Management, on National Building Regulations and NHBRC Guidelines.

During the last 10+ years of doing inspections, many for property investors who always buy the properties that look the worst, she realised that homeowners don’t do regular maintenance because they don’t know how and when to do maintenance. They also don’t know which products to use and regularly use the wrong product for the job. She is constantly giving maintenance guidance in her inspection reports.

After numerous requests, she decided to do a video program, which will make it easier for homeowners to understand and follow.
