The natural tendency when a business moves is to focus on the new premises. However, when a lease comes to an end a tenant will usually face a claim from their landlord for the cost of repairs and redecoration necessary to put the property into the condition that the tenant was required to leave it in under the terms of their lease.
This is known as a dilapidations claim. Such claims can be substantial but we set out below some tips for tenants to minimise their liability.
Acknowledging and addressing the issue of dilapidations well in advance of the end of your lease and taking a proactive approach is ultimately likely to result in a much better outcome and a reduced liability.
If you would like further advice or assistance in relation to dilapidations please contact Keith Songhurst.
