Commercial Dilapidations Services

Nationwide Specialist Services (NSS) provides tailored dilapidation solutions to ensure properties are restored to the required standard. We work on behalf of both landlords and tenants, delivering compliant, cost-effective outcomes.

Dilapidations work can be complex, time-sensitive, and costly if not handled properly. At NSS, we take the stress out of the process. Our teams have managed hundreds of dilapidations projects across the UK, from single offices to multi-site portfolios, and we know what it takes to get properties back to lease specification without the usual headaches.

We handle everything ourselves. No waiting on subcontractors. No equipment hire delays. Just experienced professionals who turn up, do the work, and get you across the finish line. Whether you’re a tenant facing a tight deadline or a landlord wanting a property ready for re-letting, we’ll get it sorted.

Property managers and corporate occupiers come back to us time and again. Why? Because we’re reliable, we’re thorough, and we don’t leave problems unsolved. If there’s an issue, we fix it. If there’s a deadline, we meet it.

We provide end-to-end dilapidations management for landlords, tenants and property managers, ensuring lease obligations are met efficiently and cost-effectively.

Our Dilapidation Service

We handle dilapidations from start to finish; surveys, repairs, redecoration, strip-outs. Landlords, tenants, property managers, we work with all of them.

Surveys and Schedules

Need to know what needs doing? Our surveyors will go through the property, check it against the lease, and give you a detailed list of what’s required. You’ll get costs too, so there are no surprises when it comes to budgeting or negotiations.

Getting Properties Back to Standard

Whether it’s patching up a few walls or stripping out an entire fit-out, we’ll get the property back to how the lease says it should be. We coordinate everything — you don’t need to chase multiple contractors.

Building Repairs

Walls, floors, ceilings, windows, roofs — if it’s broken or worn out, we’ll fix it. Our tradespeople know what landlords expect and they’ll make sure the work stands up to inspection.

Mechanical and Electrical Work

Got M&E installations that need removing? Or original systems that need putting back? Our engineers sort it all out and handle the testing and paperwork that goes with it.

Painting and Decorating

We’ll redecorate to whatever standard the lease requires. Internal, external, whatever’s needed. Our decorators do a proper job — no cutting corners.

Site Clearance

When you need a space emptied, we’ll take care of it. Partitions, furniture, equipment, rubbish, we’ll clear it all out and dispose of it properly.
