Dilapidations
When commercial landlord and tenant relationships come to an end, the parties are usually less accommodating than at the start of a lease.
It is not uncommon therefore that both landlords and tenants come to us for specialist advice in disputes over the state of repair at the end of a commercial lease.
Such cases can be incredibly complex as commercial tenants adapt to and use new technologies or provide for the use of new and innovative technology thereby using commercial premises in less traditional ways.
Damages for breach of the repairing covenant need to be differentiated from other types of claims under the tenant’s yielding up clause and consideration needs to be given to the relevant statutory and common law limitations.
Dilapidations cases often require significant input from surveyors who are also specialist in their field. Of particular importance is the choice and expertise of the surveyor.
At Colman Coyle we bring together both knowledge and experience to provide expert advice and representation in dilapidations claims.
