Commercial & Industrial Dilapidations

What is a Dilapidation and When are They Needed?

Commercial dilapidations are repair and refurbishment solutions that are carried out on commercial properties. The purpose is to address any wear, damage and compliance requirements that may have been set up in a lease agreement to ensure the property is in its very best condition.

Often, when renting an office building, dilapidation works will be included in your term agreements to ensure you leave the space exactly as you found it. This is not always the case, however, it’s worth checking to ensure you stay compliant.

There are a number of reasons why you may need the help of dilapidation contractors, both as a landlord and a tenant.
