Frequently asked questions

What is a commercial condition report?

A commercial condition report records the present condition of a property, highlights notable defects, and prioritises actions so owners, tenants and agents can plan decisions with evidence.

What is a schedule of condition?

A schedule of condition is a written and photographic record of property condition at a point in time, often attached to lease documents to reduce later disputes about baseline condition.

When does a tenant need a schedule of condition?

Tenants often need one before lease completion, assignment, or break events where there is a risk of disagreement about repairing obligations.

What is dilapidations and what is tenant-side advisory?

Dilapidations concerns lease-related repair liabilities. Tenant-side advisory means we provide inspection-led evidence and practical priorities to help tenants understand likely scope before legal or commercial negotiations.

What do you need from the lease?

We usually ask for repairing clauses, schedules, side letters, and key dates so we can align inspection reporting with your tenancy context.

How long does a commercial report take?

Timings depend on size and complexity. Smaller single units can often be turned around quickly, while larger or multi-unit instructions need longer for QA and exhibits.

What areas do you cover?

We cover Chester, Flintshire, Deeside and North Wales, plus nearby areas where access and programme requirements align.

How do you quote and what affects cost?

Quotes depend on floor area, access logistics, report type, documentation requirements and whether the instruction covers one property or a wider portfolio.
