Renovating Your Company Office: Why and How
Signs it is time
Staff avoid the office, meeting rooms are always booked, desks sit empty, the heating and cooling never balance, or clients see a tired space. Any of these is worth a survey.
How to keep working during the works
We split the floor into zones, do noisy and dusty work out of hours, and set up temporary meeting space. You get a weekly look-ahead so teams know what is happening.
Budget
A decoration-and-lighting refresh is usually far cheaper per sq ft than a full Cat B fit-out. Use the calculator for a ballpark.
What Fraser Bond does on office fit-outs
- Space search and lease negotiation, if you still need premises
- Test-fit and space plan for your headcount
- Cat A or Cat B design, M&E and IT/AV specification
- Landlord licence for alterations and building control
- Managed fit-out with one programme and one point of contact
- Handover with certificates, O&M manual and reinstatement record

Do we need planning permission?
Rarely for internal works to an office. Building control and, if you rent, the landlord's licence are more common requirements.
How disruptive is it?
With phasing and out-of-hours work, most teams keep working throughout.
