The office refurbishment process
Four phases will take us from initial briefing to project completion.
Understanding
We get to really understand your team and your goals so we can use our expertise to deliver your project exactly as you envisaged it. Here we get under the skin of the building and dig into the detail to plan how best to deliver your brief.
Partner selection
We hand-pick the best subcontractors for your project from our pool of trusted partners. Our longstanding relationships are founded on our shared values of quality, integrity, accountability and working together.
Planning
We establish the deliverables for the project, create a robust execution plan and ensure all parties are aligned before we begin. At this point we’ll agree firm timescales and expectations, and work on the detail of the design.
Construction
So now we build. Working closely with your professional team at preconstruction stage means we can hit the ground running when it’s time to start on site. Project collaboration is always our focus, and we’ll be there with you every step of the way to keep you up-to-date and excited about the final result.

Office Refurbishment FAQs
What does an office refurbishment include?
An office refurbishment improves an existing office to meet changing business needs. It can range from refreshing finishes and furniture to reconfiguring layouts, upgrading meeting rooms and replacing building services. We assess what works well, what can be retained and where changes will make the greatest difference, helping you develop a refurbishment that supports your people and the way your business operates.
How do we choose an office refurbishment company in London?
Look for relevant experience with existing buildings, a clear approach to budgeting and evidence of managing disruption. If your team will remain in occupation, ask how the contractor plans phasing, access and communication. We recommend reviewing comparable projects and discussing the delivery challenges involved. Our Marks & Spencer refurbishment demonstrates our experience of delivering phased improvements while staff remained in occupation.
How much does an office refurbishment cost?
Office refurbishment costs depend on how much of the existing space needs to change. A refresh of finishes and furniture will have a different budget from a project involving new layouts, building services and extensive alterations. The condition of existing installations and the need to work around an occupied office also matter. We assess these factors early and define the scope so that your budget reflects the work actually required.
Can we remain in our office during refurbishment?
In many cases, refurbishment can be delivered in phases while parts of the office remain occupied. Whether this is suitable depends on the layout, the nature of the works and how safely construction can be separated from day-to-day activity. We assess access, noise, dust and service interruptions when planning the project. Some activities may require temporary moves or work outside normal office hours, which we discuss before agreeing the programme.
How long does an office refurbishment take?
The timescale depends on the extent of the improvements, the condition of the building and whether the works are delivered in one stage or several phases. A cosmetic refresh involves a different programme from a refurbishment with major layout and services changes. We plan the design, procurement and construction stages together, identifying any surveys, approvals or long-lead items that could affect completion.
