Heads of Terms We will work with you to prioritise your building and occupational requirements and apply this criteria to structure the negotiations and use these as the frame work for the embodiment of your lease. Lease Advisory Unlike many practitioners we go beyond the heads of terms and won’t sit back and wait for the process to unravel. We can assist with the negotiations in the drafting stages of the lease documents and will work with you and your solicitors on any amendments. Our working knowledge of landlord requirements and the philosophy that underpins the strategy for buildings means that we are informed when discussing terms with our tenant clients. This enables us to harmonise those terms between both landlord and tenant and avoid the adversarial nature that can arise from a misunderstanding from the drafting process. Dilapidations We prepare Schedules of Dilapidations and Schedules of Condition depending on your specific requirements. We base skilled negotiation techniques on a sound knowledge of leasehold requirements, statute and case law to achieve the right outcome for your business. Dilapidations can be a complex affair and understanding your potential liabilities at the end of the Lease term is essential. We can assist with advice and support on your dilapidations requirements for your existing space. We will inspect your premises, review your lease documents together with the landlord’s Schedule of Dilapidations and negotiate a fair and reasoned settlement on your behalf. All of our advice is in accordance with the Dilapidations Protocol and in accordance with the RICS guidance (Dilapidations, 7th Edition), and any negotiation is approached from a preferred basis of settlement. We can procure the services of a suitable experienced and competent contractor to undertake the agreed works from the schedule and maintain frequent attendance on site to ensure that the works are properly performed and managed. Alternatively, we can seek to agree a financial settlement on your behalf. Design and Fit Out We offer a full ‘one-stop shop’ project delivery service from inception to completion. Our services include the preparation of layout plans and design drawings, preparation of specifications of work, statutory compliance, and project monitoring. As part of our design we will prepare initial ‘mood boards’ with samples of finishes to help you select your palette. We will prepare layout drawings to help you conceive your design and plan your new office interior and have extensive experience in delivering complex projects on time and on budget. We offer full design and specification services (including statutory compliance) taking your project from the initial design stage to implementation of the works, including project management and site monitoring. This service can run in correlation with the application for a formal licence to works usually required by a landlord. We act as project monitor to control risk, financial exposure and ensure compliance with statute and agreed construction standards. Project over-runs can be a costly and frustrating process, and can often be avoided with sufficient preparation and planning, and rigorous project monitoring. We will drive the efficiency and continuity of the fit-out process and have a vetted and approved panel of contractors which enables us to maintain quality of workmanship and delivery of projects on time and on budget. Most building projects require consideration of town planning statute and guidelines and compliance with the Building Act and other construction related law. Our building surveying team have a thorough knowledge of the law applicable to building projects and advise varying property holders accordingly. We will also ensure that the works are undertaken in compliance with all relevant Health and Safety Legislation, such as the preparation of method statements and risk assessments and compliance with the Construction Design and Management Regulations 2016. Our team understands that the requirement for information by landlords can sometimes be a cause of paralysis for tenants who are unfamiliar with construction and design regulations and just want to get on with their move to their new premises. We can help by preparing and reviewing the required documentation for compliance purposes. This will help minimise or remove any delays caused by incomplete or unsuitable documentation. For the Occupier Premises and location - We offer a search and agency services for small and medium sized businesses looking to locate in the central London area. We are experienced in the type and availability of space in this location and can offer confident and informed advice in response to your specified requirements. We maintain a vigilant brief on availability of space in this location and can save you time and resources in your search leaving you to run your business. Licence for Alterations The licence process can sometimes seem like a daunting and time-consuming process. We recognise the importance of an efficient approval process and gear our services to bring about a thorough but fast response to licensing requirements. Through proactive engagement with solicitors, contractors and landlords, we seek to bring about an amicable and prompt conclusion to the approvals process. We understand the information requirements to satisfy the lease and licence obligations and will ensure that suitable details are provided, the works properly specified and illustrated, supported by working methods and safe risk assessments. Our team has extensive experience in this area and will be able to anticipate and mitigate the risk of unexpected delays due to insufficient or inadequate documentation. Once the licence is granted we will oversee the contractor’s works and ensure that works are undertaken to a high standard throughout with frequent site visits and Client and contractor liaison. We will endeavour in our managed works which are subject to agreed time scales and will seek to ensure that deadlines are honoured. Wayleaves Obtaining adequate internet and broadband service when taking occupation of a premises is critical and the disruption caused to your business due to a lack of service can be frustrating and costly. We are able to assist with involvement at an early stage in the process to ensure that your new office move is a smooth one. Internet and broadband services are a critical part of any modern business. It is therefore essential to establish the business requirements for communication services and determine what is available at the premises. This should be done at the earliest opportunity to avoid delays for the operation of the business as soon as possession has taken place. Our service is focused on ensuring that the requirements for a Wayleave are quickly established and that the tenant’s service provider is given the right motivation and support to provide the required information for the landlord. We can work closely with your solicitor on drafting requirements, keep in close contact with the service provider and help alleviate the burdens that can arise where there are three parties to an agreement. Party Wall Matters We act as party wall surveyor in connection with The Party Wall etc. Act 1996 on behalf of either the building or adjoining owner. Condition Surveys & Repairs Our team can offer a full range of surveying services, from small repairs and defect diagnosis for small repairs to full condition survey reports. We offer a concise and direct approach which is practical and refreshing which enables you to continue focusing on the operation of your business. Often building surveys can be unwieldy and overly complicated. We provide clear and succinct tailored advice. We will categorise defects in accordance with their condition and risk and provide all relevant costings, where required, with a clear and succinct plan for action. We also have a vetted and approved panel of contractors which enables us to maintain quality of workmanship and undertake repairs in a prompt and cost effective manner. Tenants often have additional requirements to defect analysis; how they will occupy the space, access, environmental issues, servicing, communications and the like, and our experienced team are able to assist.
