Overview
We were appointed to deliver a full dilapidations project for a commercial property in Burgess Hill at the end of the tenant’s lease. The scope covered complete strip out, making good and reinstatement works to return the unit to the landlord’s required condition in line with lease obligations.
Our aim was simple. Get the space handed back on time, compliant and without unnecessary delays or disputes.
Client Requirements
- Complete all dilapidations works in line with the lease obligations
- Deliver a full strip out of non original fixtures, fittings and services
- Reinstate the property to the landlord’s required condition and layout
- Complete the works within a tight end of lease timeframe
- Minimise disruption and avoid delays to final inspections
- Provide a clean, compliant handover ready for landlord sign off
Our Solution
- Appointed as a principal contractor to manage the dilapidations process from start to finish
- Carried out a full strip out of tenant installations and redundant fixtures
- Made good walls, ceilings and floors in line with lease obligations
- Removed and capped redundant services safely and compliantly
- Reinstated finishes to landlord specification
- Managed all trades under a clear and controlled programme
- Maintained full health and safety compliance throughout the works
- Completed final clean and handover ready for inspection and reletting
Challenges
As with most dilapidations projects, timing was critical. The works needed to be completed within a tight end of lease window while meeting the landlord’s expectations for reinstatement. Close attention was required to ensure all non compliant elements were removed and finishes were returned to an acceptable standard without overworking areas that were not required under the lease.
Results
The project was completed on time and to the required specification, allowing the client to hand the property back without delays or additional costs. The landlord inspection was passed with no issues, giving the client a clean and stress free exit from the lease.
