CB Surveying Ltd
Kenilworth
27 Common Lane, Kenilworth, Warwickshire, CV8 2ER, Kenilworth
Led by Colin Bailey with 30+ years of experience, we provide bespoke, common-sense solutions for commercial and telecoms real estate. We combine the expertise of a major international firm with the dedicated, personal touch of a boutique consultancy.
We founded CB Surveying Ltd to bridge the gap between high-level corporate expertise and the dedicated, personal service that property owners and tenants truly need. Our mission is simple: to provide common-sense solutions to complex property issues, ensuring your real estate assets work for you, not against you.
Thirty Years of Industry-Leading Expertise
Our practice is led by Colin Bailey, a Chartered Surveyor with over three decades of experience in senior roles across public and private sectors. Before establishing this firm, Colin served as a Partner at DTZ (now Cushman & Wakefield), where he led property management for household names like Barclays Bank, WH Smith, Sainsbury’s, and Vodafone.
We bring that same level of strategic thinking to every client, whether you are a local business owner or a national portfolio manager. Because we are Regulated by RICS, you can trust that our advice meets the highest professional and ethical standards in the industry.
Strategic Advice for Commercial Portfolios
We act for both landlords and tenants across the office, industrial, and retail sectors. We don't just process paperwork; we look for opportunities to improve performance and reduce your overheads.
- Lease Advisory: We negotiate rent reviews and renewals, often handling submissions to Independent Experts or Arbitrators.
- Acquisitions: We conduct comprehensive searches and handle negotiations to find your next business premises or investment.
- Portfolio Strategy: We identify surplus property for disposal and highlight ways to reduce rent, rates, and service charges.
Specialists in the Telecoms Sector
Navigating the Electronic Communications Code (ECC) requires a specialist eye. We have extensive experience managing thousands of telecommunication sites, having previously served as a Regional Estates Manager for Orange PCS Ltd.
We assist landowners and occupiers with:
- Negotiating new telecom leases and renewals under the 2017 Code.
- Managing operator requests for equipment upgrades.
- Securing vacant possession or the removal of equipment.
- Resolving disputes and litigation regarding telecoms apparatus.
Challenging Unfair Service Charges
Service charge disputes can be a significant drain on resources. We are experts at reviewing occupier budgets and sinking fund reconciliations against lease terms. We have a proven track record of highlighting unrecoverable costs and negotiating directly with landlords to achieve substantial savings for our clients.
