Offices · Retail · Clinics
Spaces turned over finished, on the date you open.
Partitions, ceilings, floors, electrical and data inside a building you lease or own, worked to the building's rules and handed over ready to use.
Scope of work
What fit-out means here.
We fit out offices, shops and clinics in existing buildings: partitions, ceilings, floors, lighting and power, data, and the finishes your designer specified.
A fit-out works inside someone else's building. We file the work permits with the building administration, work the hours it allows, protect the common areas and keep the fire protection live while we work.
The date matters most here, because a lease is running. The schedule is set back from your opening day, and the punch list is walked with you before it.
Contract types
How we price this work.
A fit-out on a complete design is a lump sum. Where the space is still being designed, it is priced on the bill of quantities and remeasured as it is installed.
Lump sum
One price for the work the drawings and specifications describe. You know the cost before we start; we carry the risk on quantities. Billed by the percentage of each item done, as your QS certifies it.
Remeasured
Priced on the bill of quantities, then measured again on site as the work is installed. The final account is the measured quantities at the contract rates, agreed with your QS line by line.
We never work cost-plus, and we take private work only. All the contract types
Programme
From an empty shell to the day you open.
A fit-out is short and runs many trades at once, so it is billed on the items installed and, on a remeasured contract, settled on the quantities measured together at the end.
