Office Refurbishment
Transform your workspace without the disruption. We deliver office refurbishments around your business schedule, including evenings, weekends, and out-of-hours working to minimise the impact on your day-to-day operations.
Through careful planning, efficient project management, and seamless execution, we ensure your workspace is transformed and ready for use with minimal downtime, allowing your team to stay focused on what matters most.
Why refurbish rather than relocate?
London office rents are among the highest in the world. A well-planned refurbishment is often far more cost-effective than relocating — without the disruption, legal complexity, and downtime of moving.
More importantly, it allows you to redesign your space around how your team works today.
With Smart Maintenance+, the process is fully managed from start to finish — so you’re not chasing contractors, coordinating trades, or dealing with unexpected issues along the way.
Clear scope. Fixed pricing. A smooth, well-organised process from survey to handover.
How we work
We begin with a free site survey — no obligation, no sales pressure. From there, we prepare a detailed, itemised quotation so you know exactly what’s included and where your budget goes.
From day one, your project is planned, coordinated, and managed as a whole — not left to multiple contractors working independently.
Work is carefully scheduled to minimise disruption, including weekend and out-of-hours delivery where required. For time-sensitive projects, we can complete work within tight timeframes – ideal for offices that need to remain operational or reopen quickly.
Throughout the project, you receive clear communication and regular updates, so you always know what’s happening – without needing to chase.

Frequently asked questions
What does a full property refurbishment include?
A full property refurbishment covers every trade required to take a property from its current condition to a fully finished, move-in ready state. This includes strip-out and clearance, structural works if required, full rewiring, replumbing, kitchen and bathroom installation, plastering, flooring, carpentry, and decoration — all coordinated and managed by a single point of contact.
How long does a full refurbishment take in London?
A flat refurbishment typically takes 6–14 weeks on site; a full house refurbishment 12–24 weeks. Projects with structural changes or period complications may run longer. We provide a firm timeline in your quote.
Do I need to vacate during the work?
For a full refurbishment involving rewiring, replumbing, or kitchen and bathroom strip-out, vacating is recommended. It allows work to proceed faster and at lower cost. We advise on this at the survey stage.
Do you work with landlords on void refurbishments?
Yes — void refurbishments are a core part of our work. We prioritise fast mobilisation and efficient sequencing so landlords can re-let as quickly as possible.
Can you manage a refurbishment if I’m based overseas?
Yes — we regularly work with overseas clients. We provide regular photo updates, video calls at key stages, and a single point of contact throughout. You do not need to be present on site at any point during the project.
Do I need planning permission?
Internal refurbishments — rewiring, replumbing, kitchens, bathrooms, and decoration — don’t typically require planning permission. Extensions, loft conversions, and structural changes may need building regulations approval. Listed buildings and conservation areas have additional requirements. We assess this at the survey.
