Building Surveying

Our Building Surveys provide succinct, tailored advice to investors, developers and tenants, based on years of experience, technical expertise and diligence.

Our findings will be documented, categorised and costed and a report and summary action plan provided.

Whoever we act for, we ensure the result is tailored to their specific requirements.

Schedules of Condition

Similarly to building surveys, we can provide clients with a detailed Schedule of Condition in a concise and tailored report. A Schedule of Condition survey is generally required before signing a lease and will identify any existing defects and associated repair costs prior to any commitment being made.

Our longstanding expertise in this area means our customers will always enter into a lease fully equipped with the confidence they are making the right decision at the right price.

We act for a number of leading institutions, retailers and investors in relation to dilapidations, on expiry of individual leases or in relation to portfolio acquisition or disposal.

Our skilled negotiation techniques and sound knowledge of leasehold requirements, statute and case law have enabled us to save many of our clients millions of pounds.

Tenant Dilapidations

We act for a number of tenants, both large and small, in relation to dilapidations and advise on all aspects of dilapidations on exiting a property.

Our skilled negotiation techniques and sound knowledge of leasehold requirements, statute and case law, have enabled us to save many occupiers millions of pounds.
