Irish Glass Bottling Site
Rindsend, Dublin 4

Client:
Dublin Port Company
Consultant:
Watts
Service:
Landlord and Tenant

Watts was appointed to provide dilapidations advice for the Irish Glass Bottling site. A priced schedule of dilapidations was prepared for 18 buildings and approximately 24 acres of land, involving detailed site inspections of each of the premises and their adjoining land. Three Watts’ surveyors completed the project in just six days – ensuring all the schedules were received by the landlord’s legal team well within the allotted site inspection period of two weeks.

The brief was to prepare priced schedules of dilapidations for the client. Watts attended both client and solicitor meetings and undertook preparation of 24 separate schedules - one for each of the buildings and six for the 24-acres of land that was sub-divided into separate zones for ease of inspection.


Health and safety was key to this project, as the site includes a number of working furnaces. Watts’ surveyors exercised extreme care at all times to ensure that inspections of the roofs, ventilation towers, and underground storage bunkers were carried out safely, while at the same time meeting the requirements of the client.
