In a building with more than one occupier, legal responsibilities do not always follow visible walls. Paul Robinson Solicitors advise on commercial leases in Greenwich, helping tenants and landlords understand the premises boundary, shared systems and management arrangements alongside the wider terms for rent, use, alterations and future dealings.

Identify the legal boundary

A lease of internal space may deal differently with windows, floor slabs, ceilings and structural elements. We review the description and plan, asking how they relate to the physical building and survey findings. Clarity matters for repair and insurance as well as occupation. A tenant should not assume that everything within reach is included or that everything outside the unit is irrelevant.

Trace essential shared services

Heating, drainage, lifts or other systems may serve several parts of the property. We examine rights to use them, access for maintenance and the allocation of expenditure. The building manager's current practice can provide useful context, but the documents should support the intended arrangement. Technical advisers can assess condition and capacity where the operation depends on a particular shared installation.

Connect management with future change

Alterations, subdivision or a change of occupier can test arrangements that work informally today. We consider consent provisions, service charge mechanisms and rights reserved to the landlord, together with the term and exit options. Our advice covers new leases and existing queries. Send plans, available service information and the lease so that the review can distinguish direct obligations from shared contributions.

Frequently asked questions

Who is responsible for a pipe serving more than one unit?

The lease and building arrangements need examination. Location alone may not determine responsibility, particularly where a system serves several occupiers or passes through different premises.

Can the landlord enter my unit to repair shared equipment?

The lease may reserve access rights with conditions. Review their scope and practical operation, particularly if access could disrupt sensitive equipment or customer-facing activity.

Should the lease plan be compared with a measured survey?

Where boundaries or areas are unclear, that can be useful. The legal description and technical information should be considered together before discrepancies become accepted assumptions.
