Simon Matley is Head of Dilapidations at TFT, bringing more than 25 years' experience in the commercial property market covering dilapidations, occupier fit-out, refurbishment and new build projects.
Simon’s recent career highlights include project managing the Professional Footballers’ Association office fit out in Manchester, which included a lecture theatre, podcast studio, and an LED screen tunnel right through the middle of an office!
Based in Manchester, Simon leads up our team of dilapidations specialists across the UK, helping landlords and occupiers manage their commercial properties with minimal risk.
Following on the heels of recent dilapidations claims which have come to court, this case, Twinmar Holdings Ltd v Klarius UK Ltd, provides useful guidance when claiming damages for terminal dilapidations and serves as a reminder that disrepair cannot always be pre-determined by obvious failure.
