Office Fit out

Project duration: June 2013 – July 2013

The existing warehouse space was refurbished into a new office fit-out environment keeping the industrial look with exposed services & fittings. The area of works had strict guidelines regarding noise restrictions which in course had to be worked around not only the local residents, but the client offices on the second floor of the building. Major new branding of signage was required which led to permit approval by council prior to client taken over the premises.

The scope of works included demolition of existing plaster walls & warehouse fixtures and fittings. Supply and install carpet tiles, supply and installation of reused workstations (including mobile pedestals and loose furniture), supply & installation of joinery to kitchen, reception and office area storage (including Corian stone), supply & installation of bluestone tiles to reception & kitchen, new office partitions (including powder coated frames, doors, hardware & glass), mechanical works, electrical works, painting of ceilings and walls, security, fire, internal and external signage, supply and installation of blinds and repairs to existing vermiculite ceiling.

Key aspects of project:

Spray painting of repaired existing vermiculite to ceiling once all services where installed including mechanical ductworks & vents, electrical cable trays and conduits.
Offices to open plan areas where vermiculite ceilings where sprayed to only be 2700mm high with plaster ceiling to create a no ceiling floating affect
Converting existing warehouse section into a new reception with office partitions and workstations
External signage to outside of building including banner signage approx. 60Lm in length
