Dilapidations and strip-out explained

Dilapidations works return a leased office to the condition the lease requires at the end of the term, typically removing tenant alterations and repairing or replacing ceilings, floors and decorations.

Dilapidations and strip-out for City of London businesses

At the end of a lease, the landlord's surveyor issues a schedule of dilapidations. We price and carry out the works on that schedule, or help you negotiate a cash settlement by pricing it accurately.

Strip-out waste is segregated and recycled wherever possible, with waste transfer notes supplied.

Fit-outs in London are shaped by tight loading bays, managed building rules and out-of-hours noise restrictions, so programmes are planned around the building manager as much as the drawings.
