Schedules of Condition
Protect Your Property with a Professional Schedule of Condition
Introduction
A Schedule of Condition is a detailed record of the physical condition of a property at a specific point in time. It provides an accurate written and photographic record that can be relied upon in the event of future disputes, property damage or lease negotiations.
At DGA Surveyors, our Chartered Building Surveyors prepare comprehensive Schedules of Condition for landlords, tenants, property owners, developers and contractors across Dublin and throughout Ireland. Whether you're entering into a commercial lease, carrying out neighbouring construction works or simply protecting your property before major alterations begin, a professionally prepared Schedule of Condition provides clarity, evidence and peace of mind.
Our reports are tailored to each property and include detailed observations supported by high-quality photography, creating an independent record that can help avoid costly disputes in the future.
Schedules of Condition for Residential Properties
Schedules of Condition are equally valuable for residential properties, particularly where significant building works are planned or where neighbouring properties may be affected.
We regularly prepare reports for:
-
Private homeowners
-
Apartment developments
-
Housing developments
-
Boundary properties
-
Renovation projects
-
Property extensions
-
Self-build homes
By documenting the existing condition of walls, ceilings, floors, roofs, driveways and external boundaries before work begins, property owners have an independent record should concerns arise during construction.
Schedules of Condition for Commercial Properties
Commercial leases often place repairing obligations on tenants throughout the duration of the lease. Without an agreed Schedule of Condition, tenants may become responsible for defects or deterioration that existed before they occupied the property.
DGA Surveyors work with both landlords and tenants to prepare clear, impartial Schedules of Condition that accurately document the property's condition at lease commencement.
We regularly undertake surveys for:
-
Offices
-
Retail premises
-
Industrial units
-
Warehouses
-
Hospitality properties
-
Healthcare facilities
-
Educational buildings
-
Mixed-use developments
Our reports provide valuable protection for both parties and can significantly reduce the likelihood of disputes at lease expiry.
