Dilapidations
We prepared detailed specifications and tendered the works six months ahead of lease end to support an early commercial settlement. This approach ensured contractors were ready to start immediately after the lease end.
The tenant’s consultant disputed costs and issued alternative works that failed to reflect the full scope of obligation. We challenged this reduced scope and engaged in detailed negotiations to protect our client’s position.
Agreement was reached three months before lease end, securing a commercial settlement at £49 per sq ft and avoiding delays to the works programme.
