Schedules of Condition
A Schedule of Condition provides an agreed record of a property’s condition at the outset of a lease. When prepared jointly and annexed to the lease, it offers both photographic and written evidence of existing defects and areas of wear. Its purpose is to help clarify the tenant’s repairing obligations during the term and to limit potential dilapidations claims at lease end by distinguishing between pre-existing issues and later deterioration. If prepared carefully, it can significantly reduce the scope for dispute and provide a fair basis for negotiation.
Regulated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS)
All of our commercial property surveys are undertaken by Chartered Surveyors who work to the strict professional standards and ethical requirements set by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. This ensures that every report is independent, accurate, and fully compliant, providing clear and reliable guidance for owners, occupiers, landlords, and tenants.
Schedules of Dilapidation
We act for both landlords and tenants in all aspects of dilapidations, whether arising during the lease term or at lease end. Our work includes the preparation of robust Schedules of Dilapidation and the negotiation of claims to ensure our clients are protected and their repairing liabilities are fairly represented.
Pre-acquisition Surveys
Whether you are purchasing a property or entering into a new lease, a Building Survey or Condition Report provides essential insight into the building’s condition. These surveys identify defects, maintenance liabilities, and areas of potential risk. Where required, we can also provide budget costings to help inform negotiations and ensure you have a clear understanding of likely expenditure before committing to the transaction.
Pre-acquisition Surveys
Whether acting for landlords or tenants, we provide balanced, evidence-based advice to support fair outcomes in all commercial property matters.
Planned Preventative Maintenance
Maintenance is an inevitable part of owning or occupying a building, and all components will deteriorate over time. However, it does not need to be an unpredictable or reactive cost. With a Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) programme in place, it becomes possible to anticipate future repairs, manage budgets more effectively, and reduce the risk of unexpected failures. A structured maintenance schedule can be prepared for building owners or facilities managers, helping to preserve the building fabric, extend service life, and ensure compliance with statutory obligations.
