gpt response text in sendRequest: **Commercial Due Diligence Survey for an Industrial Unit in East London** **Building Pathology Insights** During our recent commercial due diligence survey, we identified a few building pathology issues that warrant attention: 1. **Concrete Floor Slab**: Our assessment highlighted a significantly out-of-level floor slab. This indicates potential concerns with the original tamping, levelling, and concrete consolidation methods used during construction. Such issues may impact the overall structural integrity and usage of the space. 2. **Roof Panels**: It was observed that mismatched roof panels were installed, which compromises their ability to interlock effectively and achieve the necessary watertight seal. The interim solution employed—filling the interlocking gaps with mastic sealant—raises possible concerns about future roof leaks. We advised the client that these panels could be seen as out of repair at the lease's commencement, and proactive measures may be necessary to prevent water ingress during the lease term. Understanding and addressing these issues is crucial to safeguarding the asset's value and ensuring a smooth lease experience. Our team is committed to providing expert guidance and solutions to keep your property in optimal condition.
