Greenwich's commercial property market has been transformed by the development of the Greenwich Peninsula, which has brought significant new office, retail and leisure space to the borough. Alongside this, established commercial areas around Woolwich, Eltham and Greenwich town centre provide a range of high-street retail and traditional office accommodation that generates regular dilapidations activity.

A terminal schedule of dilapidations is a formal claim served by the landlord at or near the end of a commercial lease, detailing each breach of the tenant's repairing, decorating and reinstatement obligations. Each item is described, costed and referenced to the relevant lease clause. The schedule forms the basis for negotiation.
The dilapidations process in Greenwich typically takes two to six months from schedule service to settlement. Claims on modern Peninsula premises tend to be more straightforward where specifications are clearly documented, while older commercial stock across the borough may involve more complex assessment.
