Lease-end strip-out and reinstatement of offices across London and the Home Counties, from partitions and ceilings to rewiring and redecoration, delivered to your handover date.
At the end of an office lease, most schedules of dilapidations ask for the same thing: take out the tenant’s fit-out and give the landlord back the open floor they let. That usually means removing meeting rooms and partitions, ceilings, raised floors and cabling, then reinstating the original finishes and services and redecorating.
Woodhams Group carries out office dilapidations and strip-out for tenants and landlords across London, Surrey, Berkshire, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Kent and Essex. Our own CSCS and NVQ qualified trades do the building, mechanical and electrical work, so one team and one Project Manager take the office from fitted-out to handed back.
Office dilapidations are almost always against a fixed date: the lease end, a break date or the next tenant’s start. We plan the programme back from that date and sequence the trades so they can work alongside each other without compromising quality or safety.
We price against the schedule of dilapidations item by item, so the tenant, the landlord and the surveyors can see the cost of each line. Where the building is still partly occupied, we can schedule noisy work around the people still using it.
On completion we provide the test certificates for the electrical and fire alarm installations, so the landlord’s surveyor has what they need to sign the works off.
It depends on the lease and the schedule of dilapidations, but it usually covers partitions, ceilings, floor coverings, raised floors, tenant cabling and air conditioning added by the tenant, followed by reinstatement and redecoration.
It depends on the size of the office and the schedule. As an example of pace, on an office project in Chertsey we completed a full four-storey refurbishment in six weeks by working seven days a week.
