Landlords cannot necessarily require you to give back your premises ‘as new’ at the end of your lease. For example, you cannot be required to renew the roof if the existing roof, though very old, is watertight, and therefore not in disrepair. In some circumstances even if it is beyond repair, you can walk away without liability. In other circumstances, your liability will be capped at the difference between the value of the property as it stands, compared to its value in repair. We can negotiate with your landlord to minimise the cost of a settlement. Naturally, we also offer the service of preparing schedule of dilapidations for service upon tenants.

We can take the stress out of any building project by ensuring that the contractors have completed the works at the stages that have been agreed and only then will we authorise that payments are released. The weather, material delivery dates, technical alterations, building control inspections amongst other things are all variables that can delay a project. With our assistance house extensions to multi million pound schemes can be managed effectively.

Protecting your property is protecting your investment. By documenting the condition of a wall before any damage occurs are the correct steps to avoid any disputes. We can provide this service to you by preparing a Party Wall Award.
