OUR SERVICES
Commercial refurbishments in Oldham and Greater Manchester
Shops, offices and units stripped and refitted, worked around whatever still has to trade.
WHAT IT INVOLVES
What commercial work involves
Shops, offices and units stripped and refitted, worked around whatever still has to trade.
The constraints are the difference
The building work is no harder than domestic. What has to stay open, what hours are workable and what the landlord must approve are.
Settle it before the strip out
Including the reinstatement obligation at the end of the lease, which is the one that surprises people.
IN THE QUOTE
What is in the quote
A programme built around your trading hours, not around ours- Strip out and disposal, priced as its own stage
- Partitions, ceilings, flooring and decoration
- Alterations to services, coordinated with whoever is certifying them
- Phasing, where the premises has to stay in use
- What is excluded, particularly anything that needs a landlord's consent first
Commercial jobs are won and lost on the programme rather than the building. What has to stay open decides how the work is sequenced.
HOW WE DO IT
How a commercial refurbishment job actually goes
Four steps, start to finish, so you know what happens and when.
-
01
Tell us what the unit has to become
A shop, an office, a treatment room or a workshop, and whether you are trading through it. Photos of the space as it is.
-
02
What the lease and the building allow
What is structural, where the services are, what the landlord's conditions say, and what has to stay. The visit is about the constraints as much as the work.
-
03
A written quote with the phasing in it
Priced in stages and, where you are still trading, sequenced around your opening hours with the out of hours work shown separately so you can decide if it is worth it.
-
04
Strip out, build, fit out
Stripped back, partitions and services in, then finishes, so the dirty work is done and gone before anything that marks easily goes in.

USEFUL TO KNOW
Commercial questions
Can you work outside trading hours?
Where the job needs it, yes, and it is priced accordingly rather than quoted as normal hours and then queried. Say at the outset what hours you actually need protected.
Our landlord needs to approve the works. Does that hold things up?
It does if it is left late. A licence to alter takes as long as it takes, so the sensible order is to get the scope settled and submitted early and build the programme around the answer. It is worth flagging at the first conversation.
Do you do the electrical and mechanical certification?
No. Those are separate registered disciplines and those registrations are not held here, so nothing here offers them. The building work is coordinated around whoever is doing them, which works best when they are appointed early.
Can you phase the work so we stay open?
Usually yes, and it costs more than doing it in one go because the same area gets set up and cleared more than once. Whether that trade is worth it depends on what a closed week costs you, which is your number rather than ours.
