A Considered Start to Every Project

The early stages of a commercial interior project — demolition, strip-out, and any structural construction — establish the conditions for everything that follows.

Footprint manages dilapidation, construction, and fit-out under one team, with elements planned in coordination from the very beginning.

What is included in construction & dilapidations?

Construction

We manage structural alterations, new-build elements, mezzanine installations, and complex interior construction works in-house, coordinating all trades, maintaining site safety, and ensuring the structural works integrate cleanly with the design that follows. All construction is delivered in full compliance with current building regulations.

Full & Partial Strip-Out

We carry out full and partial office dilapidations - the careful removal of existing partitioning, ceilings, flooring, and fittings — safely, efficiently, and in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Dilapidations

End-of-lease dilapidation works carried out professionally and in accordance with your lease obligations, documented carefully throughout.

Waste Management

Responsible disposal of all demolished materials, with full documentation of waste streams where required.

Asbestos Coordination

Where asbestos is identified, we coordinate with licensed removal contractors and manage the process within the project programme so that compliance is maintained and the timeline is not disrupted.

Can you carry out dilapidation works within an occupied building?

Yes. We have considerable experience managing strip-out and dilapidation within live commercial environments, planning the programme carefully to maintain safe access and keep disruption to a minimum.

How do you manage asbestos if it is identified on site?

We coordinate the process with licensed removal contractors and manage it as part of the wider project programme, ensuring compliance is maintained and the project timeline is not adversely affected.

Can Footprint manage both the dilapidation and the fit-out that follows?

Yes — and in most cases this is the most efficient arrangement. One team, clear accountability across both phases, and a programme designed to flow without unnecessary gaps.

What do dilapidations works typically involve?

It depends on the terms of your lease. Works typically include the removal of tenant alterations, reinstatement to the base build condition, redecoration, and making good. We review your lease obligations carefully and scope the works accordingly.
