In Plymouth, our experienced Plymouth Commercial Building Surveyors undertake Schedules of Dilapidations.
A schedule of dilapidations is a document, which is issued on to a tenant by a landlord (or sometimes a tenant) either during a lease, towards the end of a lease, or following the expiry of a lease. The reasoning for a schedule of dilapidations is to outline the lease obligations that are relevant to dilapidations and to advise on disrepair that is in direct breach of these lease obligations. The Schedule of Dilapidations will also include costs for each of the specific items of works.
A schedule of dilapidations enables the dilapidations process to begin and enables the landlord to understand where the tenant has breached their lease and the works required in order to comply with their lease obligations. The schedule of dilapidations enables the dilapidations liability to be quantified and will enable the tenant to understand the works they need to complete in order to avoid any potentially liability. Alternatively the schedule of dilapidations will be used to enable the commencement of negotiations and used as a basis by both parties surveyors to discuss and agree a scope of works and associated costs.
