Land Remediation Relief (LRR) is a relief from corporation tax for expenditure on remediating contaminated land or bringing derelict land back into use. At Mirador Advisory, we offer a certified report for businesses to claim tax relief on the costs of cleaning up land for development and regeneration projects.
Developers, commercial property owners and investors who remove contamination from land or buildings purchased from third parties are eligible for tax relief on the cost of the clean up. Refurbishments, developments and regeneration projects qualify for this tax relief known as Land Remediation Relief (LRR). Businesses can claim corporation tax relief of up to 150% of the cost of clearing up contaminated land.

The land must not be in productive use, which means that it is not currently being used for any beneficial purpose.
In order for the land to be put to productive use, buildings or other structures must be removed.
The expenditure would not have been incurred if the land was not contaminated or in a derelict state.
The expenditure is not subsidised.
The expenditure is on scoping out the remediation process (such as surveys and excavations)
The expenditure is on Preparatory activities (such as risk assessments and consultancy fees)
Capital expenditure is on the cost of plant and machinery.
Your own labour costs where more than 20% of employee time has been spent on the remediation.
Actual remediation sub-contractor costs
The cost of the land remediation was not incurred within the last 3 years (you have 2 years to claim relief after the financial year the costs were incurred)
The land was contaminated by the claimant company
The claimant company does not have a ‘major interest’ in the land (freehold or a minimum lease of 7 years)
The expenditure was subsidised, for example by grant funding
The purchase price paid for the land was discounted due to the cost of remediation works
