Tom Setchell Email & Phone Number

I am a East of England based Chartered Building Surveyor and Project Manager, with almost 20 years of experience of advising clients within both the Private and Public sectors. My key area of work is with Commercial and Industrial Properties. This involved a mix of office, light industrial and retail properties, as well as residential properties as part of larger estates.My main areas of expertise are:• Portfolio & Estate strategy planning for Landlord & Tenant clients.• Dilapidations strategy advice & negotiation for both Landlord & Tenant clients.• Project Management & Contract Administration of the refurbishment of existing buildings – Both Cat. A & B.• Essential repair & refurbishment works to both modern and Listed Buildings.• Building Defects Diagnosis & Rectification.• Planned Preventative Maintenance advice & implementation.• Preparing Schedules of Condition.Having previously headed up the Public Sector Building Surveying offering at Deloitte Real Estate, I then managed a number of key national clients for BNP Paribas before moving to CBRE to expand my dilapidations expertise. After over 12 years in larger firms, I decided to move to smaller firms and departments to allow me to service my clients across a wider range of requirements and on a more personal basis.This is to advise clients on how to best manage and improve the performance of their buildings and estates. This includes the full scope of project management and contract administration services, from services replacement schemes, external repair and redecoration, internal refurbishments, common parts refurbishments. This also includes looking at the quality of the building and the long-term strategy for the property/s. This often links to key lease events an incorporates a wider dilapidations strategy for the property/s.My key drive is to deliver clear and simple advice to allow my clients to plan for the future, while getting on with their day-to-day business, with the minimum of disruption.Away from work I enjoy the gym, am a keen cook, like to watch rugby and enjoy clay pigeon shooting (badly!).

Listed skills include Dilapidations, Building Surveying, Commercial Real Estate, Refurbishing, and 16 others.
