FAQs about Office Fit-out
What does an office fit-out involve?
Office fit-out includes everything needed for the installation of a new or reimagined workspace. There are different types of office fit-out depending on the stages of occupancy of a building. Our experienced office fit-out contractors can look after every stage.
Shell and core is the very basics of the metal and concrete structures, a building would not be habitable to tenants at this stage. What the industry calls ‘CAT A’ office fit-out services takes the space a step further and adds elements that make it a blank canvas to a tenant. Things such as raised ceilings, electrical and mechanical services.
A step further from that is ‘CAT B’ office fitting, which is about putting your stamp on the space and the elements that allow you to use the space in a particular way. This can be things such as partitioning, creating kitchens, meeting rooms as well as finishes and branding.
