We recognise that every commercial renovation must serve your business objectives. Our process begins by understanding your brand, operations, and customer experience goals. We then develop solutions that enhance workflow efficiency, optimise space utilisation, and create environments that support your business strategy.
We understand that downtime costs money. Our meticulous planning, efficient execution, and flexible scheduling minimise disruption to your operations.

Transform your professional environment to enhance productivity, collaboration, and employee wellbeing. Our office renovations create functional, inspiring workspaces that reflect your company culture and support your business operations.
We've developed a streamlined approach to commercial renovations that ensures exceptional results while minimising disruption to your business operations.
We begin by understanding your business needs, brand identity, and operational requirements. This includes visiting your space, discussing your vision, analysing workflow patterns, and identifying opportunities to enhance both customer and employee experiences. Our goal is to develop a deep understanding of how your physical environment can support your business objectives.
Based on our initial analysis, we develop a comprehensive design concept for your commercial space. This includes spatial layouts, material selections, lighting plans, custom joinery designs, and equipment specifications. We present these concepts with detailed visuals and provide practical insights on how each element supports your business goals while considering budget parameters.
Once the design is finalised, we handle all necessary documentation and approvals to ensure your project complies with local regulations. This includes building permits, health department approvals, liquor licensing requirements for bars, and any other specific certifications your business may require. Our extensive experience with Gold Coast commercial regulations helps streamline this process.
With approvals in place, our skilled team executes your renovation with minimal disruption to your operations. We carefully schedule work phases, coordinate specialised trades, and implement strict quality control measures throughout the build. For operating businesses, we can arrange after-hours work, temporary partitions, and phased handovers to maintain business continuity during renovation.
Upon completion, we conduct a thorough inspection and orientation to ensure your new space functions perfectly. We provide documentation for all installed systems, warranty information, and maintenance recommendations. Our post-completion support ensures a smooth transition into your renovated space, with our team available to address any adjustments needed as you settle into your transformed commercial environment.

Commercial renovation timelines vary significantly based on scope, complexity, and size. A standard office fit-out might take 4-6 weeks, while a comprehensive nightclub or bar renovation could take 8-12 weeks. During our initial consultation, we'll provide a detailed timeline specific to your project and can discuss strategies to minimise downtime or phase the work to accommodate your operational needs.
We employ several strategies to minimise business disruption, including after-hours work schedules, phased construction approaches, and temporary partitions to separate construction areas from operational spaces. We can also develop a detailed logistics plan that includes strategies for maintaining customer access, preserving critical operations, and managing deliveries and construction traffic. Our goal is to balance efficient renovation progress with your business continuity needs.
Yes, we manage all aspects of the approval process for commercial renovations. This includes building permits, development applications, fire safety compliance, and any other regulatory approvals specific to your business type. For nightclubs and bars, we also handle liquor licensing requirements and acoustic compliance. Our extensive experience with Gold Coast commercial regulations helps streamline this process and anticipate potential challenges before they arise.
Absolutely. We regularly collaborate with businesses to incorporate existing branding elements, corporate design guidelines, and visual identity requirements into commercial renovations. We can work directly with your marketing team or external brand consultants to ensure your renovated space accurately reflects and enhances your brand identity through appropriate use of colours, materials, signage, and spatial elements.
Commercial renovation costs vary widely based on the type of business, scope of work, quality of finishes, and technical requirements. Basic office fit-outs might start around $800-$1,200 per square metre, while high-end nightlife venues can range from $2,500-$4,000+ per square metre. During our consultation process, we'll develop a detailed budget specific to your project requirements, helping you understand the investment needed and identifying opportunities to optimise value.
We offer comprehensive design services as part of our commercial renovation package, eliminating the need to coordinate with multiple parties. Our in-house design capabilities include spatial planning, interior design, custom joinery design, and technical specifications. For more complex projects, we can also collaborate with specialist designers or architects you may already have engaged, providing a seamless integration between design vision and construction implementation.
Quality control is integrated throughout our commercial renovation process. This includes rigorous supplier and subcontractor vetting, regular on-site inspections by project managers, documented quality checkpoints at key project milestones, and comprehensive pre-handover inspections. We maintain detailed quality assurance documentation and address any issues promptly before they impact subsequent work stages. Our QBCC licensing (Licence #15371883) and comprehensive insurance coverage provide additional assurance of our commitment to quality standards.
We typically structure commercial renovation payments around project milestones to align with tangible progress. This often includes an initial deposit (usually 10-20%), followed by progress payments at clearly defined construction stages. The final payment is due upon satisfactory completion and handover. For larger projects, we can discuss payment schedules that accommodate your business cash flow considerations. All payment terms are clearly outlined in our detailed contract documentation before project commencement.
