Dilapidations

Navigating Lease End Liabilities

Dilapidations are the repairs and reinstatement works required at the end of a commercial lease and can involve significant cost. We provide clear, specialist advice to help landlords and tenants manage this process effectively. Whether you are protecting an investment or responding to a dilapidations claim, we help you reach a fair and informed outcome.

Landlords Protecting Your Asset

Your property is a valuable investment, and it should be returned in the condition set out in the lease. We prepare detailed, RICS compliant Schedules of Dilapidations and manage negotiations on your behalf, helping you recover the costs needed to restore the property to a lettable condition.

Tenants Reducing Your Liability

Dilapidations claims can be stressful and costly, and they are not always fully justified. We inspect the property, review the lease terms, and challenge any invalid claims. Our aim is to reduce your liability and secure a fair settlement so you can exit the lease with confidence.

Expert Negotiation and Settlement

Our focus is on resolving dilapidations matters efficiently and without unnecessary dispute. With RICS accredited surveyors on our staff, they follow the Dilapidations Protocol to avoid legal escalation wherever possible. Through clear advice and strong negotiation, they protect your commercial interests and keep the process straightforward.
