Following a lease expiry, refurbishment project or building alteration, many properties require reinstatement to restore them to a safe, compliant and lettable condition. Our experienced team delivers complete reinstatement solutions for offices, warehouses, industrial facilities and commercial buildings, ensuring every project is completed efficiently and in accordance with lease requirements.
What Is Property Reinstatement?
Property reinstatement involves restoring a commercial building after alterations, strip out works or lease-end occupation.
Unlike demolition or strip outs, reinstatement focuses on rebuilding, repairing and finishing the property so it is ready for occupation, refurbishment or landlord handover.
Typical reinstatement projects include:
- Internal repairs
- Decorating
- Ceiling repairs
- Flooring replacement
- Wall restoration
- Mechanical and electrical reinstatement
- General making-good works
Many reinstatement projects form the final phase of wider commercial dilapidation works.
