Commercial Due Diligence Survey: Industrial Unit, East London Building Pathology Aspects During our thorough investigation of the industrial unit located in East London, our chartered building surveyors identified critical issues related to building pathology which may impact both short-term functionality and dilapidations liability. Below we detail the key findings and recommendations: 1. Concrete Floor Slab Concerns: The survey revealed that the concrete floor slab is significantly out of level, with significant palpable variation throughout the space. The irregularity signals potential issues in the initial construction phase, including insufficient tamping, levelling, and concrete consolidation. Such conditions not only affect the operational efficiency of the space but might also lead to increased wear and tear, potentially escalating maintenance costs over time. We recommend a detailed structural assessment to ascertain the full extent of the issue and to evaluate remediation options. 2. Roof Panel Discrepancies: Our assessment identified the use of mismatched roof panels which are crucial for ensuring the water tightness of the structure. The intended interlocking mechanism of these panels has been compromised, with gaps between mismatched panels observed to be filled with mastic sealant. This is a significant concern as it poses a high risk of water ingress. We expressed to our client that roof leaks are probable during the lease term and noted that the roof could be deemed out of repair at the lease's commencement. Immediate corrective measures, including a professional reinstallation or replacement of the roof panels, are advised to safeguard the integrity of the building and maintain its value. These findings, while pointing to potential challenges, also provide a clear pathway towards enhancing the building's condition and operational viability. Addressing these issues promptly can help in safeguarding not only the physical asset but also the financial investment of our client. We at AAL Surveyors are prepared to offer our expertise in the evaluation of the suitability of a building for your business, and to advise of the pitfalls in relation to the physical condition of the property. For further details, professional consultation, or to discuss next steps, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team. We are here to assist with all your commercial property needs.

We recently conducted a Reinstatement Cost Assessment (RCA) for this listed building in central London. Undertaking such an excercise, requires a detailed understanding of both historical construction methods and the implications for insurance reinstatement values. The building incorporated specialist features including stained glass windows, rare stone cladding with decorative carvings, bespoke curved stone stairways, hand-painted murals, and ornamental stucco plasterwork, each of these elements require special consideration to understand their impact on the RCA bottom line figure. - Stained Glass and Domes: These elements require skilled artisans familiar with traditional techniques. The cost of replication varies depending on the complexity of the design and the availability of specialists. - Rare Stone Cladding with Decorative Carvings: The sourcing of rare stone and the craftsmanship required for intricate detailing can involve significant costs, particularly where specialist skills are needed for precise replication to meet listed building requirements. - Curved Bespoke Stone Stairways: These features often necessitate custom stone masonry, a skillset that is becoming increasingly rare, contributing to elevated labour costs. - Hand-Painted Historic Murals: The restoration of original murals or their replication requires artists trained in historical techniques, with additional conservation measures often necessary. - Ornamental Stucco Plasterwork: Restoring or recreating decorative plasterwork requires specialists familiar with traditional methods to ensure accuracy and durability. Accurate reinstatement valuations are essential to mitigate the risk of financial shortfalls in the event of damage or loss. A comprehensive RCA, undertaken in accordance with RICS guidance, ensures that insurance coverage reflects both the complexity and specialist nature of the construction. Our team is experienced in assessing both modern and historic buildings, ensuring valuations are accurate and aligned with the building’s unique characteristics.

The building incorporated specialist features including stained glass windows, rare stone cladding with decorative carvings, bespoke curved stone stairways, hand-painted murals, and ornamental stucco plasterwork, each of these elements require special consideration to understand their impact on the RCA bottom line figure. - Stained Glass and Domes: These elements require skilled artisans familiar with traditional techniques. The cost of replication varies depending on the complexity of the design and the availability of specialists. - Rare Stone Cladding with Decorative Carvings: The sourcing of rare stone and the craftsmanship required for intricate detailing can involve significant costs, particularly where specialist skills are needed for precise replication to meet listed building requirements. - Curved Bespoke Stone Stairways: These features often necessitate custom stone masonry, a skillset that is becoming increasingly rare, contributing to elevated labour costs. - Hand-Painted Historic Murals: The restoration of original murals or their replication requires artists trained in historical techniques, with additional conservation measures often necessary. - Ornamental Stucco Plasterwork: Restoring or recreating decorative plasterwork requires specialists familiar with traditional methods to ensure accuracy and durability. Accurate reinstatement valuations are essential to mitigate the risk of financial shortfalls in the event of damage or loss. A comprehensive RCA, undertaken in accordance with RICS guidance, ensures that insurance coverage reflects both the complexity and specialist nature of the construction. Our team is experienced in assessing both modern and historic buildings, ensuring valuations are accurate and aligned with the building’s unique characteristics.
