Dilapidations for Landlords and Tenants

Our dilapidations services are designed to safeguard the interests of both landlords and tenants. Whether you are a landlord seeking to ensure that your property is returned in the appropriate condition at the end of a lease, or a tenant aiming to negotiate a fair settlement, our experts provide comprehensive advice and representation throughout the process.

Technical Due Diligence

We offer in-depth technical due diligence services for those considering the acquisition or leasing of commercial properties. Our detailed assessments cover the structural, mechanical, and electrical aspects of the building, as well as any potential legal or environmental issues, ensuring that you have all the necessary information to make informed decisions.

Commercial Building Surveys

Our commercial building surveys provide a thorough examination of the condition of your property. We identify any defects, maintenance issues, and compliance concerns, delivering a detailed report that outlines the current state of the building and recommendations for any required works.

Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) Surveys

Effective maintenance planning is crucial to the long-term performance of any commercial property. Our PPM surveys help you anticipate and manage maintenance requirements, ensuring that your building remains in optimal condition and that costly reactive repairs are minimised.

Navigating the end of a commercial lease can be complex. Our exit strategy advice is designed to assist both landlords and tenants in preparing for lease termination. We provide guidance on dilapidations liabilities, negotiation strategies, and any required works, helping you to achieve a smooth and cost-effective transition.

Dilapidations Reports

Our dilapidations reports provide a detailed assessment of a tenant's obligations under a lease. We inspect the property, identify any breaches of covenant, and prepare a comprehensive schedule of dilapidations. This service is essential for landlords seeking to ensure compliance or for tenants looking to manage their liabilities.
