Chartered valuation surveyors apply the statutory cap (Section 18 of the Landlord & Tenant Act 1927 in England & Wales; Section 65 of the Landlord & Tenant (Amendment) Act 1990 in Ireland). This provides the compensation due to a landlord for breached covenants to repair (decorate and reinstate alterations) will be the ‘lower of the cost of remedial works OR the impact (if any) upon the property’s freehold value.’
