Office Dilapidations

When we build it, we can also dismantle it.

What is an office dilapidation?

When a tenancy ends, the property needs to be restored to its original condition; this process is called office dilapidation.

How do office dilapidation companies help?

We work with both landlords and tenants to get a property back to satisfactory condition that is suitable for everyone, saving costs along the way. 

The process can be complex, but we will walk you through the documents associated with a dilapidation so we can make it stress-free and easy to manage and ensure we adhere to the terms agreed upon in the lease.

Our process

We listen, understand, and consider the requirements of both landlords and tenants during a dilapidation. 

What this looks like in practice:

Define

We review your lease, assess the condition of the space and clearly outline the work required so there are no surprises.

Design

We plan the reinstatement works in detail, focusing on efficiency, compliance and keeping costs under control.

Deliver

Our experienced team carries out the work to a high standard, on time, ensuring the property is ready for a smooth handover.

Everything you need to know about our office dilapidation services

Who is responsible for an office's dilapidation?
It is the tenant’s responsibility to be aware of the terms set out in the tenancy, not the landlord's.
Why are dilapidations difficult to manage?
Often, companies do not realise the implications of their tenancy until after they have left a property, which can lead to unexpected costs. You must ensure you fully understand the terms of your lease agreement to know how liable you are for dilapidation costs.
How can you prepare for a dilapidation?
All tenants of commercial properties should be mindful of the implications and responsibility for maintenance and repair. This means keeping your property in good condition during your tenancy to minimise costs when you leave.
When should dilapidation work be carried out?
Ideally, you should begin the process 6–12 months before your lease ends. This allows time for surveys, quotes and works without risking penalties for late handover.
What is included in a dilapidation service?
Typical works include removing partitions and alterations, redecorating, repairing walls and floors, restoring lighting and air conditioning and carrying out a deep clean. Every project is tailored to the lease requirements and the condition of the space.
