Chiswick’s office market is defined by one of the largest single business campuses in London, and that shapes how lease-end works run here. Chiswick Park — the 1.8 million sq ft, twelve-building estate designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour and managed under the “Enjoy Work” brand — has hosted a rotating cast of global occupiers including The Walt Disney Company, Paramount Pictures, Discovery, CBS, Qualcomm, Singapore Airlines, Halliburton and Foxtons. A campus of that size sees continual lease churn, and every move triggers a reinstatement obligation. Around it sits Chiswick’s studio and period stock — Power Road, Bath Road and the offices above Chiswick High Road. London Dilaps Ltd is a dilapidations specialist, not a general contractor fitting lease-end work around refurbishment, and Chiswick is a market we work in regularly, pricing and delivering the full scope for tenants, landlords and surveyors under one contract and a single point of contact. We also work in Hammersmith and White City.
Chiswick’s commercial gravity sits at Chiswick Park, by Gunnersbury and Chiswick Park stations — a managed campus of twelve buildings and roughly 1.8 million sq ft, home to more than forty businesses across media, technology, pharma and consumer brands. Its occupiers have included Disney, Paramount, Discovery, CBS, QVC, Qualcomm, Amdocs, International SOS, Swarovski, Starbucks and Vue Entertainment. Because much of the campus is let and managed through Enjoy Work, fit-outs turn over regularly and reinstatement to campus standard is a routine part of the estate’s cycle. Beyond the park, Chiswick offers a very different kind of stock: the studio and light-industrial offices around Power Road and Bath Road, and the period suites above Chiswick High Road favoured by smaller creative and professional firms. That mix — a large institutional campus alongside characterful smaller stock — is what makes W4 lease-end scopes so varied.
On Chiswick Park floors, reinstatement is measured against a well-defined campus base-build standard: suspended ceilings, lighting, raised access floors, power and data and finishes returned to specification, tenant alterations removed, M&E re-commissioned and a full schedule of condition pack delivered at handover. Media and tech occupiers frequently install heavy, bespoke fit-outs — edit suites, screening rooms, labs and feature reception areas — so the strip-out scope is often larger than the headline floor area. The Power Road studios and Chiswick High Road period suites carry lighter but more building-specific obligations. Whichever applies, we read the lease and licences for alterations before pricing, and we challenge items that fall outside your contractual liability rather than costing the schedule as served. Because a landlord’s cash settlement is usually padded with contingency, fees and a lost-rent allowance, completing the works directly normally settles lower — and closes your liability on handover.
Chiswick’s access profile is dominated by the campus itself. Chiswick Park operates as a managed estate with its own service routes, loading points, goods-lift bookings and out-of-hours rules coordinated through Enjoy Work — a strip-out has to be sequenced around campus logistics and neighbouring occupiers rather than a single building’s dock. Off-campus, the Power Road and Bath Road stock sits in a busier light-industrial grain with tighter kerbside loading, and the High Road period offices have limited rear access. The A4 / Great West Road and the Hogarth roundabout shape delivery timing across the whole district. We plan every W4 project around these realities — booking egress into permitted windows, handling estate inductions and permits-to-work, and liaising with campus management so works never disrupt the wider estate. Our teams cover Chiswick and the surrounding W4, W6 and TW8 postcodes regularly, extending into Hammersmith, Brentford, Acton, Ealing and Kew.
Every Chiswick project begins with a proper on-site survey against the served schedule and the underlying lease, not a remote estimate. We produce a clear, itemised fixed-price proposal and a programme built around your handover date, then manage estate induction, permits-to-work, campus liaison and surveyor sign-off directly — so specification, quality and programme stay in your hands rather than the landlord’s contractor’s. At completion we carry out a pre-handover inspection, snag to a surveyor’s standard, compile photographic documentation and hand over a complete compliance pack, with one dedicated contact from first call to sign-off.
Chiswick Park is a sophisticated, professionally-managed estate, and reinstating a floor to campus standard is not a job for a general builder learning dilapidations on site. Lease-end works are our entire focus — strip-out, make-good and Cat A reinstatement — and we bring £5 million public and employers’ liability cover, experienced site teams and a documented handover on every contract. We know how managed campuses expect works to be sequenced and evidenced, we price directly against the served schedule, and our direct-to-contractor rates typically undercut the landlord’s contractor by 20–50% on like-for-like scope. Because we deliver the works rather than negotiating a settlement, your liability closes cleanly on handover.
Our specialist office dilapidations service covers the full lease-end repair and compliance programme for Chiswick tenants — reviewing your lease, agreeing scope with your surveyor, and delivering repairs, redecoration, reversal of tenant alterations and schedule-of-condition compliance under a single fixed-price contract, from first assessment to final handover.
We deliver complete office reinstatement returns Chiswick office floors — including Chiswick Park campus space — to base-build in line with landlord and campus specification: suspended ceilings, lighting, raised access flooring, power and data, decorations and all make-good works, delivered under one managed contract.
Our office strip-out services in London cover full removal of tenant fit-out across Chiswick Park and W4 — partitions, ceilings, raised floors, kitchens, joinery, data cabling, edit-suite and lab installations and M&E — sequenced around campus logistics and finished ready for landlord inspection or Cat A reinstatement.
Yes. We work across the Chiswick Park campus, the Power Road and Bath Road studio stock and the offices above Chiswick High Road, and extend into Hammersmith, Brentford, Acton, Ealing and Kew.
As a broad guide, end-of-lease strip-out and Cat A reinstatement runs from about £18 to £30 per square foot, with heavy media, tech or lab fit-outs at the upper end. We provide a free site visit and a fixed-price quotation for every project.
Yes. We return ceilings, lighting, raised access floors, power and data and finishes to the campus specification, re-commission the M&E and provide the test certificates and O&M documentation the surveyor expects — sequencing the works through Enjoy Work’s estate logistics so the campus isn’t disrupted.
Yes. Bespoke media and tech fit-outs are common at Chiswick Park, and we scope the full strip-out and make-good back to base-build, including specialist M&E, AV and comms.
In most cases completing the works directly is cheaper and cleaner than a cash settlement, and it closes your liability on handover. Settlement can favour the tenant where the landlord is refurbishing or redeveloping the floor, or where the lease ends in under eight weeks. Our free site visit gives you a fixed-price figure to weigh against any offer.
