To make things as straightforward as possible, we have streamlined our processes to ensure that there are no unnecessary delays or complications along the way.
Here is a 10 step breakdown of what to expect when you work with us.
Landlord Information Gathering- To begin, we will engage with you, whether you are the client or the designer, to gather all the relevant information about the premises. This includes understanding the fit-out requirements, as well as the dos and don’ts specified by the landlord. We will also explain our cost estimation process, ensuring complete transparency from the outset.
Costing the Full Design Pack- Once we have received the full fit-out guide and design pack, our commercial team can begin costing all elements of the project.

Joinery Drawings and Workshop Preparation- For any custom joinery items in the project, our CAD team will prepare detailed manufacturing drawings for the workshop. These drawings will undergo a thorough review and be signed off by either the designer or the client.
Construction Phase Plans- As the project progresses, our Project Manager will take charge of creating detailed construction phase plans. These plans outline the timeline and specific steps involved in the fit-out process. They will also be shared with the landlord to keep them informed about the project’s progress.
Engaging Building Control- During this phase, we will engage with the relevant building control authorities. We will submit the necessary drawings and arrange the first site visit with them. Maintaining close communication with the building control authorities ensures that the project adheres to all the required regulations and standards, with regular updates provided until completion.
Procurement and Scheduling- At this stage, all the required products, materials, and tradespeople for the project will be procured. Our team will handle all the orders, making sure that everything is in place and ready to commence work on-site.
Commencement of Work- The start date for the fit-out will be subject to the approval from the landlord and the completion of necessary paperwork and drawings. We take into account our workloads to ensure we can dedicate the required attention and resources to your project.
Site Duration and Process- The duration of the project on-site will be determined based on the landlord’s fit-out guide and the specific requirements of the project. For example, if there are intricate processes like applying microcement on walls, we will allocate the necessary time for its installation. Throughout the on-site work, our team will handle all tasks professionally and efficiently.
Project Handover- On the specified handover date, we will present the completed project to you, ensuring it meets all requirements and standards. We take pride in delivering snag-free results. Additionally, we will provide you with an Operations and Maintenance (O&M) manual, offering guidance on how to maintain and care for your new space.
We hope this thorough breakdown provides you with a clear understanding of our process when working together.
We are committed to delivering exceptional results and ensuring a positive experience throughout the entire project journey. If you have any further questions or need clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team.
