What is office refurbishment?

Office refurbishment is the process of renovating and updating your existing workspace, often due to changing business needs, size and ways of working. Contrary to an office relocation, an office refurbishment often involves a space that already exists and has already been used by your business, or another business before you.

What are the different types of office refurbishment?

While an office refurbishment can vary in size and scale of works needed, an in-situ office refurbishment will take place while a business remains in occupation at its current space. This could happen in conjunction with temporary operation from a serviced office, or with the implementation of a hybrid or remote working model.

Some refurbishments may involve minimal cosmetic changes to office interior design, layout and furniture, and others may require a larger or full-scale refurbishment, including CAT-A works or mechanical and electrical installation.

Why undertake an office refurbishment?

There are a number of reasons why you may be undertaking an office refurbishment. You may need to accommodate headcount growth, realign your space for activity-based or hybrid working models, update your look and feel for a stronger brand presence, or enhance technology, culture or communication within the workplace.

Done right, an office refurbishment can help your business to realise numerous benefits, like increased employee happiness and pride, greater workplace efficiency and flexibility, attracting and retaining the best talent, and improved brand expression. Ensuring your business and people strategy is aligned with your workplace design is essential to achieving these aims.

Office refurbishment FAQ’s

How long does an office refurbishment take?

The pace of a workplace project depends largely on its scale and complexity, as well as the timelines your business needs to work to, and whether you’ll be remaining within the space during the refurbishment. Get in touch with us for an informal chat, so that we can assess your needs and provide you with an outline timeframe for delivery.

How much does it cost to refurbish an office?

The cost of a workplace project is dependent on the scope and nature of the project brief and what you’re looking to achieve. We can help you to navigate all of the above, with full transparency on costs and quality, so that you can focus on the needs of your business and its people.

Can I capitalise office refurbishment costs?

In some cases, office refurbishments can be deducted against tax allowances, depending on whether or not the purpose of the works are improvement or are repairs to the space’s structure or function.

Can I refurbish my office with my workforce in-situ?

Yes, you can. Peldon Rose has extensive experience with in-situ office refurbishments, where we’ll work on your space in parts without disruption to your people and operations.

Should I refurbish or relocate?

Before answering this question, you’ll need to understand in what areas your current space isn’t meeting the needs of your people. Read this blog to define whether an office refurbishment or relocation is right for you.
