What We Do
Dilapidations are breaches of lease covenants, usually relating to the property’s condition during or at the end of a tenancy. We help commercial landlords and tenants deal with all aspects of dilapidations by providing specialist surveys, schedules, advice and representation.
We have a proven track record of securing unbeatable outcomes for our clients, we uniquely provide the services of both a chartered building surveyor and a chartered valuation surveyor.
- Our Chartered Building Surveyors identify disrepair and prices remedies
- Our Chartered Valuation Surveyors can help with a little-known legal rule that means dilapidations damages are capped at the lower of the Cost of the Remedial Works OR the impact (if any) on the property’s value. Often this is FAR LESS, so the Valuation Surveyor’s input is crucial to the accurate valuation of claims
