Office Refurbishment London

Whether your office has grown tired, your team has outgrown the layout, or you simply need a workspace that reflects your brand, Office Refit delivers professional office refurbishment services across London. We handle every aspect of the transformation, from the earliest planning stages right through to final handover, so you can focus on running your business while we create a workspace your team will love.

A well-planned refurbishment does more than refresh the aesthetics. It improves productivity, supports employee wellbeing, and makes a lasting impression on clients. With decades of combined experience in commercial fit-out and refurbishment, our team understands what it takes to bring a tired office back to life, on time and on budget.

Why Choose Office Refit for Your Refurbishment

Choosing the right refurbishment partner is one of the most important decisions you will make during the project. At Office Refit, we combine deep industry experience with a genuinely client-focused approach. Our project managers have delivered hundreds of office refurbishments across London, from compact startup spaces in Shoreditch to large corporate headquarters in the City. That breadth of experience means we anticipate challenges before they arise and keep your project moving smoothly from day one.

We offer a complete end-to-end service. Rather than coordinating multiple contractors yourself, you get a single point of contact who manages everything: design, mechanical and electrical works, flooring, partitioning, decoration, furniture, and technology. This integrated approach saves you time, reduces risk, and ensures every element of your refurbishment works together seamlessly.

We also understand that most businesses cannot simply shut down while building work takes place. That is why we plan every refurbishment to minimise disruption. Whether that means phasing the work across floors, scheduling noisy tasks outside core hours, or setting up temporary workspaces, we tailor our programme to suit your operational needs. Our goal is straightforward: deliver a stunning result without derailing your day-to-day business.

Every project is assigned a dedicated project manager who acts as your single point of contact throughout. They coordinate all trades, manage the programme, handle procurement, and provide regular progress updates. You always know exactly where your refurbishment stands, and you always have someone to call if a question arises.

Our Office Refurbishment Process

A successful refurbishment follows a clear, structured process. Over the years, we have refined our approach to ensure nothing is overlooked and every project is delivered to the highest standard. Here is how it works.

Initial Consultation

Everything begins with a conversation. We visit your current office, listen to your goals, and discuss your budget, timeline, and any specific requirements. This initial meeting is free and carries no obligation. It simply allows us to understand what you need and advise on the best way forward.

Survey and Brief

Once you decide to proceed, we carry out a detailed measured survey of your space. We then work with you to develop a comprehensive project brief that captures everything: headcount requirements, meeting room needs, breakout areas, storage, branding, acoustic considerations, and any technical specifications. This brief becomes the foundation for the entire project.

Design Concepts

Our design team produces initial concept layouts and mood boards based on your brief. We present options that balance aesthetics with practicality, ensuring the design supports the way your team actually works. You will see space plans, material palettes, and 3D visualisations so you can picture the finished result before any work begins.

Cost Planning

With the design agreed, we produce a detailed cost plan that breaks down every element of the refurbishment. There are no hidden extras or vague allowances. You receive a transparent, itemised quote so you can make informed decisions about where to invest and where to economise.

Build Phase

This is where the transformation happens. Our project manager coordinates all trades on site, managing the programme day by day to keep everything on track. We maintain strict quality control at every stage and provide regular progress updates so you are never left wondering what is happening in your space.

Handover

Before we hand over the keys, we carry out a thorough snagging inspection and address every item on the list. You receive a comprehensive handover pack including warranties, maintenance guides, and as-built drawings. We also check in after completion to make sure everything is performing exactly as expected.

What Does an Office Refurbishment Include?

Every refurbishment is different, but most projects draw from a common set of elements. Depending on the scope of your project, your office refurbishment could include any or all of the following:

  • Partitioning and glazing — new partition walls, glass partitions, and sliding doors to reshape your floor plate and create private offices, meeting rooms, or collaborative zones.
  • Flooring — carpet tiles, luxury vinyl tile (LVT), polished concrete, or timber flooring to suit the look and function of each area.
  • Lighting — energy-efficient LED lighting, task lighting, feature pendants, and automated controls to create the right ambience and reduce running costs.
  • Mechanical and electrical (M&E) — upgraded heating, ventilation, air conditioning, power distribution, and data cabling to support modern working practices.
  • Decoration — full redecoration including plastering, painting, wall coverings, and feature walls to refresh the look of your space.
  • Furniture — desks, task chairs, soft seating, storage solutions, and bespoke joinery, sourced and installed as part of the project.
  • Branding and signage — vinyl graphics, illuminated signs, feature walls, and wayfinding to reinforce your brand identity throughout the office.
  • Technology integration — AV systems, video conferencing setups, booking panels, and wireless presentation tools to support hybrid and collaborative working.

Office Refurbishment Costs in London

One of the most common questions we receive is “how much does an office refurbishment cost?” The honest answer is that it depends on the scope, specification, and location of your project. However, we can provide realistic benchmarks based on hundreds of completed projects across London.

  • Light refresh (£30–£50 per sq ft) — new carpet, redecoration, updated lighting, and minor layout changes. Ideal for offices that are structurally sound but looking dated.
  • Mid-range refurbishment (£50–£80 per sq ft) — includes new partitioning, flooring throughout, upgraded M&E, new furniture, and design-led finishes. Suitable for businesses that want a noticeable transformation.
  • Full refurbishment (£80–£150 per sq ft) — a comprehensive strip-out and rebuild, including bespoke joinery, high-specification finishes, new ceilings, full M&E upgrade, and technology integration. Best suited to businesses relocating or undertaking a complete reimagining of their space.

It is worth noting that costs in central London, particularly in areas such as the City, Mayfair, and the West End, tend to sit at the higher end of these ranges due to access restrictions, building regulations, and premium material expectations. We always provide a detailed, itemised quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
