Typically, a schedule of dilapidations is served towards the end of the lease. In cases of disagreement, a surveyor can mediate, representing either the landlord, or the tenant.

Dilapidations Advice
It is beneficial for both landlords and tenants that the dilapidations process be initiated well before the end of the lease period, helping avoid unwanted complications, or even costly legal battles.
Serving a schedule of dilapidations before the tenant has vacated the building also allows the tenant to opt to carry out repairs themselves, which can deliver savings for both parties.
Dilapidations support for landlords in Warwickshire
For landlords with commercial property in Warwickshire, having the property returned in the condition agreed upon in the lease is crucial. Delayed repairs or restoration work can lead to financial setbacks, especially if it prevents new tenants from moving in.
Our team supports landlords by:
- Reviewing lease terms to determine the tenant’s obligations concerning property repairs
- Conducting comprehensive inspections of the property to highlight any breaches
- Drafting a detailed schedule of dilapidations, complete with cost assessments for necessary repairs
- Issuing the schedule of dilapidations to the tenant
Should there be a dispute over the schedule, we can negotiate on the landlord’s behalf, ensuring a fair resolution is reached
Dilapidations support for tenants in Warwickshire
If you’re a tenant leasing a commercial property in Warwickshire, you may receive a dilapidations schedule at the end of your lease, detailing the landlord’s claims for repairs or damages. These claims can sometimes come as an unexpected shock, and in some cases, may seem excessive or unreasonable.
Our surveyors can assist tenants by:
- Reviewing the lease agreement and the schedule of dilapidations
- Conducting property inspections to assess whether the claims are valid
- Disputing any excessive or unfair charges
- Offering cost-saving advice, such as completing some of the repair work independently
- Negotiating with the landlord’s surveyor to reach an amicable settlement
Schedule of condition
A Schedule of Condition is a vital document for both landlords and tenants. Compiled at the start of the lease, it records the property’s condition, creating a reference point for when the tenancy ends.
For landlords, this document supports any dilapidations claims by providing evidence of the property’s original state. For tenants, it offers protection against unreasonable claims by documenting the property’s pre-existing condition.
