What this site is
Dilapidations Cost provides independent information, tools and data. Figures are researched, sourced inline, and dated; tools show their assumptions. Dilapidations Cost is an independent site and free introduction service operated by Ellul Solutions Ltd; we pass your details to dilapidations surveyors who send you fee proposals directly. We may receive a fee from those surveyors; you pay nothing and are under no obligation. We are not a firm of surveyors or solicitors, we are not affiliated with or endorsed by RICS, the Ministry of Justice or any body named on this site, and nothing here is legal, valuation, tax or accounting advice. We separate surveyors' fees from claim values deliberately, and we do not publish cost per square foot figures, because section 18(1) makes recovery a question about your own landlord's reversion.
What this site is not
Nothing here is financial, legal, tax, medical or other regulated advice, and no tool output is a quote, an offer, or a recommendation to act. Results are estimates from the stated assumptions; confirm anything that matters with a qualified, authorised professional before acting. Where we introduce you to a provider, we act as an introducer only: we do not advise on, arrange, or recommend between providers, and we never handle client money.
Accuracy and liability
We work to keep every figure current (each table shows its last-updated date) but make no warranty that content is error-free. To the extent permitted by law, Ellul Solutions Ltd accepts no liability for loss arising from reliance on this site. Links to external sites are provided for sourcing; we are not responsible for their content.
Embedding and citation
You may cite this site's data with attribution (a link to the page cited) and may use the embeddable widget where offered, unmodified. Scraping that removes attribution, or republishing tables wholesale without a link, is not permitted.
