Led by Joel MacDonald MRICS
Our director, Joel MacDonald, is a Chartered Building Surveyor with a career spanning over a quarter of a century across both the public and private sectors. Having held key roles in local authorities and social housing before establishing JMD in 2013, Joel brings a strategic, high-level perspective to every instruction.
Supporting our technical expertise is Vicki Wright-MacDonald, our Head of Operations. Vicki ensures that every project runs seamlessly behind the scenes, from initial client communication to the final delivery of documentation. This collaborative approach allows us to deliver a level of precision and care that larger firms often struggle to match.
Protecting Your Interests in Landlord & Tenant Matters
We specialise in navigating the complexities of commercial leases. Our work ensures that your financial and legal interests are protected, whether you are entering a lease or exiting one.
- Schedules of Dilapidations: We act for both landlords and tenants. We recently secured a significant settlement for a commercial landlord of an industrial warehouse, negotiating with a multinational retail firm to ensure the property was market-ready.
- Schedules of Condition: We provide detailed documentation to prevent future repair disputes, such as our recent comprehensive survey for a new office tenant.
- Licences to Alter: We guide clients through the technicalities of property modifications, including ongoing work for Portsmouth City Council reviewing tenant alterations.
Managing Construction from Concept to Completion
Taking a project from the drawing board to reality requires precision. We act as your eyes and ears on-site, providing contract administration (JCT/NEC), cost consultancy, and full project management. We ensure your projects are legally compliant, financially sound, and delivered to the highest standard.
