What are Dilapidations?

Dilapidation is the legal obligation for a commercial tenant to restore the leased premises to their original condition upon the termination of the lease. Tenants must rectify any damages or defects to the property, as specified in the lease agreement.

Landlords have the right to pursue dilapidation claims against tenants during the lease term or at its conclusion. The dilapidation claim will detail the required repairs, and the tenant must either carry out the work themselves or reimburse the landlord for the costs, which may include lost rental income. Alternatively, if the lease permits, the landlord can seek legal recourse, such as damages, forfeiture, or specific performance.

Dilapidation Contractors provide a comprehensive service to assess dilapidation requirements, conduct a complete survey, and undertake the necessary strip-out, demolition, and reinstatement works for owners and occupiers.
