GB Group, we have extensive experience supporting building surveyors on dilapidation projects, delivering the specialist façade works required to return assets to a compliant, lettable condition. Our capability covers the full spectrum of external envelope requirements typically identified in schedules of dilapidations, including targeted repairs to stone, brick, cladding and glazing systems, as well as deep cleaning, restoration and the reinstatement of weathering details. We understand the technical expectations placed on surveyors and landlords, and ensure every element of work is aligned with the standards, specifications and evidence requirements of a formal dilapidation process.
Dilapidation projects often involve ageing façades, mixed construction systems and restricted access, and our teams are equipped to manage these challenges efficiently. Whether the works require rope access, MEWPs, temporary edge protection or bespoke access solutions, we engineer safe, controlled routes to every elevation so that repairs, cleaning and system reinstatement can be completed without disruption to ongoing operations. Our approach ensures that all façade elements—from sealants and coatings to metalwork, glazing and masonry—are restored to a condition that meets both contractual obligations and long‑term performance expectations.
We recognise the time pressures associated with lease‑end programmes and the need for surveyors to demonstrate clear, auditable progress. For this reason, a dedicated project manager oversees the works on-site, coordinating access, sequencing, quality control and photographic reporting. This ensures surveyors receive consistent communication, documented evidence and a fully compliant façade package delivered within the required timeframe.
