End-of-lease dilapidations, strip-out and reinstatement works for tenants and landlords across London and the Home Counties, delivered by one contractor to your lease deadline.
When a commercial lease ends, the property usually has to be handed back in the condition the lease requires. That means stripping out the tenant’s fit-out, reinstating the original layout, and repairing and redecorating the building. These are dilapidations works, and they nearly always come with a fixed date attached.
Woodhams Group carries out dilapidations, reinstatement and repair works on offices, industrial units, warehouses, shops, restaurants and listed buildings. We work from our base in Hook, Hampshire, across London, Surrey, Berkshire, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Kent and Essex, and further afield for larger projects.
We have been a building contractor since 1960. Our own CSCS and NVQ qualified trades, a dedicated Project Manager and an in-house design team mean one company takes responsibility for the whole schedule, from the first strip-out to the final test certificates.
Every schedule of dilapidations is different, but most combine the same three things: taking out what the tenant put in, repairing what has worn, and redecorating. We deliver all three with one team.
We also provide design services, including CAD and BIM, where reinstatement drawings are needed.
They are the repair, reinstatement and redecoration works a tenant is required to carry out under a commercial lease, normally at the end of the term. The landlord’s surveyor usually sets them out in a schedule of dilapidations.
London and the Home Counties, including Surrey, Berkshire, Hampshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Kent and Essex. We travel further for larger projects.
Yes. Send us the schedule and we will visit the property and price it item by item, so you and your surveyor can see the cost of each line.
Yes. On Hudson House we were CDM Principal Contractor for the whole project, from heavy demolition through to final testing and certification.
We plan every project around the handover date. On a recent office project in Chertsey we worked seven days a week to complete a full four-storey refurbishment in six weeks.
That is a decision for you and your surveyor. A firm contractor price for the works helps you compare the two, and we are happy to provide one.
