Commercial Building Surveys

Our comprehensive surveys evaluate property condition, identifying defects and recommending remedial actions. Tailored for acquisition due diligence or asset management, these surveys cover structural integrity, compliance, and lifecycle costing. Clients receive detailed reports with prioritised maintenance strategies to inform investment decisions and mitigate risks.

Dilapidations

We provide strategic advice on dilapidations claims and negotiations for landlords and tenants. Our services include interim and terminal schedules, cost assessments, and dispute resolution. By aligning lease obligations with property condition, we help clients avoid unnecessary liabilities and achieve cost-effective settlements.

Project Management

From concept to completion, our project managers ensure timely delivery within budget. We coordinate design teams, manage procurement, and monitor construction quality. Our client-focused approach integrates risk management and compliance, supporting sectors including retail, industrial, and healthcare across the UK.

Planned Preventative Maintenance

We develop customised maintenance strategies to extend asset lifespan and reduce operational costs. Our surveys identify critical components, establish maintenance schedules, and forecast capital expenditures. Clients benefit from compliance assurance, energy efficiency improvements, and minimised downtime through proactive property management.

Schedule of Condition

We produce detailed schedules recording property condition to limit lease liabilities. Combining photographic evidence with technical descriptions, these documents protect tenants from unfair repair claims. Our RICS-compliant reports are legally robust, ensuring clarity on pre-existing defects during lease negotiations.

I was very happy with the service I received from Bradley-Mason LLP. I was in a rush for an asbestos survey prior to the completion of a property sale The fast and efficient service I got was second to none and the price very competitive. I will have no hesitation in using their services again in the future.

I am delighted with the service received from Julian Mason. I contacted the company at short notice to arrange a commercial property survey prior to signing a shop lease. Julian came out a couple of days later to conduct the survey and full schedule of condition, which was thoroughly undertaken, beautifully and professionally presented in great detail and according to my lawyer, was the best he had seen. I have found Julian and his associates to be friendly, helpful, professional and honest in their dealings with me and wouldnt hesitate to recommend them. Many thanks.
