This dilapidation report template is free to use and helps make the task of documenting the condition of existing assets such as footpaths, driveways and fencing easier and more reliable.

Good dilapidation records highlight existing asset damage and the state of particular aspects of the property that are likely to be effected by construction work, excavation or demolition. Recording and monitoring the condition of exisiting assets is critical to the success of projects.

This helps all parties understand whether it was the current or recent works completed on or around that site or building which caused damage to the asset. If for example, a wall has a few bricks knocked out of it or the kurbing is cracked, it's important to understand what caused this damage and/or who's responsible. If a subcontractor or specific event caused the damage during construction works, then the property owner or manager may be able to claim damages and fixes.

Dilapidation reports ensure that everyone understands the current condition and damages to assets - before and during construction - so that no one gets unfairly blamed or charged for damage or defects which were already there.
