In Bath, our experienced Bath Commercial Building Surveyors can meet your Dilapidation Survey requirements.
Prior to the Dilapidation Survey a Commercial Building Surveyor should ensure that access is available to the property and all parts of the property. Should there be no safe access to the roof via the building then it may be necessary to hire access equipment for the Dilapidation Survey.
Once on site a surveyor should use a methodical approach to assess the condition of the building as part of the Dilapidation Survey. All surveyors will have a different approach to a Dilapidation Survey, although most work on an outside/inside or inside/outside approach. The surveyor should record breaches of the lease, and ensure they have taken sufficient quantities to enable accurate budget costings to be included within the Dilapidation Survey report.
If undertaking the Dilapidation Survey on behalf of a tenant then the surveyor will often be able to utilise the Dilapidation Survey report which has already been produced and served by the landlord. This will enable the surveyor to use the existing report as a checklist to assess whether the items and costs included by the landlord are reasonable. It should be noted that a surveyor should also review the building to assess whether there is a risk that the claim could increase.
