Services
Since 2004 it has been a legal requirement for all commercial premises in the UK, built before 2000, to have and maintain an asbestos register.
An asbestos survey will identify potential asbestos containing materials within the building fabric and provide you with a register of all such materials.
The register is a document containing photographs of suspected materials and a location plan to help building owners and users to identify where the suspect materials are located.
Suspect materials will be tested for the presence of asbestos and the result of the test result will be included in the asbestos register identifying whether or not the sample contains asbestos and if it does, what type of asbestos is present.
Edgeworth Street act as Planning Supervisors advising clients, preparing Outline Health and Safety Plans, serving notice to relevant Health and Safety Executives and appraising and adjudicating Method Statements, Risk Assessments and Construction Phase Health and Safety Plans prepared by Principal Contractors.
Furthermore, we attend Site Meetings obtaining necessary information to site health and safety and the production of the Health and Safety File upon completion to the end user.
We act as designers in respect of the CDM (Construction Design and Management) Regulations 2007, advising clients in respect of CDM Regulations and where appropriate providing Risk Assessments and Method Statements to plan and supervise.
A schedule of condition survey is generally commissioned before the signing of a lease in order to determine the condition of the building so that any existing defects and their repair costs are identified prior to any commitment being made.
The schedule of condition survey includes a report on the condition of the building together with notes concerning potential future defects that might need attention.
Commercial leases usually stipulate that the tenant is responsible for any repairs during and at the end of a tenancy, so it is vital that you fully understand your potential liabilities before signing your lease.
A dilapidation survey can save you or cost you several thousand Pounds - depending on the building surveyor carrying out the survey.
Whether you are a UK based commercial landlord or a commercial tenant, you can count on our expertise regarding matters of dilapidation accrued at the termination of a lease.
Although most schedules of dilapidations look similar, it is the knowledge and skill of the surveyor that will determine the outcome of the dilapidation claim.
If your dilapidation surveyor is relatively inexperienced, or is good on the technical issues, but not so good with communication and negotiation skills, you could find yourself losing money at the end of a lease term - whether you are a landlord or a tenant.
As specialist commercial building surveyors, Edgeworth Street is highly experienced with all aspects of dilapidation claims and has acted as expert witness in a number of dilapidation cases.
There are many complex issues surrounding dilapidation claims and Edgeworth Street can help landlords or tenants, who find themselves engaged in escalated legal proceedings following a collapse in negotiations at the end of a commercial property lease.
The expert witness service is available direct to clients or their legal advisors, who require a highly experienced dilapidations expert to provide detailed and accurate supporting documentation, qualified opinion and of course, an objective view as to whether a claim is worth progressing or not.
