Services
Schedule of Dilapidations
Our RICS-accredited surveyors produce detailed dilapidations reports documenting property condition at lease commencement or termination. These legally binding assessments identify repair obligations, prevent disputes, and establish liability frameworks for commercial properties across Surrey and London. Reports include photographic evidence and cost estimates for required remediation works.
Building Defect Analysis
We investigate structural movement, damp penetration, and timber decay issues using specialist diagnostic techniques. Our reports determine defect causes, provide prioritised remediation strategies, and offer phased repair options to accommodate budget constraints while ensuring structural integrity for residential and commercial properties.
Party Wall Surveys
As RICS-registered surveyors, we prepare party wall awards under the 1996 Act, acting for both building owners and adjoining properties. Our services include condition surveys, award preparation, and dispute resolution for construction projects affecting shared boundaries across London and the South East.
Reinstatement Cost Assessment
We conduct RICS-compliant reinstatement cost assessments for commercial properties to ensure accurate insurance coverage. Our evaluations consider current rebuilding costs, material specifications, and regulatory requirements, with annual desktop reviews to maintain valuation accuracy for insurance purposes.
Condition Surveys
Our comprehensive condition surveys identify existing property defects and maintenance requirements. Using RICS methodology, we assess structural elements, building fabric, and service installations to provide clear condition ratings and prioritised repair recommendations for both residential and commercial clients.
