Building surveys for Bedfordshire's commercial property market

The condition of a commercial building is rarely as straightforward as it appears. Bedfordshire's stock spans Luton's logistics base, Bedford's town centre offices, and the market town premises of Dunstable, Leighton Buzzard, and Biggleswade. A thorough survey at the right moment protects you from the risks you cannot see.

Our RICS-registered surveyors are based in Bedford and work with property owners, investors, occupiers, lenders, and insolvency practitioners across the county. Instructions are handled through our Bedford office, backed by 180 years of experience in commercial property.

Dilapidations

Dilapidations are the repair and reinstatement obligations that arise under a commercial lease. Whether you are a landlord preparing a schedule of dilapidations or a tenant seeking to understand your liability at lease end, we assess the position clearly and negotiate on your behalf where required.

Schedule of condition

A schedule of condition records the precise state of a property at a specific point in time, most commonly at the start of a lease. The document limits a tenant's repair liability to no worse than the condition recorded, providing important protection throughout the lease term.

Measured survey

A measured survey produces accurate floor plans, elevations, and sections of a building for use in design, development, or asset management. Our surveyors capture detailed spatial data on site, delivering drawings to the specification and scale your project requires.

Dilapidations Pre Assessment

What property types can I book a commercial building survey for in Bedfordshire?

From Luton's logistics parks to Bedford's offices and the market town stock across Dunstable, Leighton Buzzard, and Biggleswade, our surveyors cover the full range:

Offices

Ageing services, inadequate insulation, and structural issues are common findings in Bedfordshire's office stock. A survey before acquisition or a lease event tells you exactly what you are taking on.

Retail units

Older retail premises regularly present damp, fire compartmentation failures, and unrecorded alterations. A schedule of condition or dilapidations assessment gives you control over your liability at any stage of a lease.

Industrial and logistics buildings

Cladding condition, floor loadings, and roof integrity are the recurring issues our surveys identify across Bedfordshire's industrial and logistics stock. Addressing them before you commit is considerably less costly than addressing them afterwards.

Investment portfolios

Gaps in survey coverage are gaps in your understanding of what you own. For clients managing investment assets across Bedfordshire, we apply the same rigorous standard across every property in a portfolio.
