    • Frequently Asked Questions

    • Arrow Icon How much does an office fit out cost in Birmingham?

      Costs can vary depending on your building, specification, and timescales—but our cost guides are updated regularly to reflect market data. We’ll also provide a detailed quote tailored to your needs.

      Arrow Icon How long does an office fit out project typically take?

      Most Birmingham fit outs range from 6–12 weeks depending on the size and complexity. We’ll build a bespoke programme to minimise disruption and deliver as efficiently as possible.

      Arrow Icon What’s the difference between Cat A, Cat B, and Cat A+ fit outs?

      Cat A is a basic landlord shell, Cat B is a full tenant-ready space, and Cat A+ is a plug-and-play solution often used to reduce vacancy. Our Birmingham specialists can help you choose the right approach for your building or business.

      Yes. We regularly deliver projects in occupied buildings and phased schedules. Our Birmingham team will ensure your business keeps running while the space transforms around it.

      Arrow Icon Do you offer design-only or consultancy services?

      We do. While many clients choose our full design and build model, we also offer standalone workplace consultancy, space planning, and strategic design support in Birmingham and across the UK.

      Arrow Icon Can you help with sustainability and ESG requirements?

      Absolutely. We integrate sustainable design principles, energy-efficient systems, and ESG compliance into every project—whether you’re targeting BREEAM, NABERS UK, or just want to reduce your environmental impact.
