01
Site Consultation
We come to you. Inspect the space, understand your brief, and give you honest feedback on what's achievable — before you sign anything.

Design is finalised and you receive a fixed lump sum quote — no surprises mid-build.
🕑 Approx 4–6 weeks depending on approvals and decisions
04
Approvals
We manage the approvals process — CDC, council, strata, or landlord sign-off. Handled in parallel with design wherever possible.
05
Fitout Works
We build. You open on time.
🕑 Approx 6 weeks on site

Faster when decisions are made quickly. Slower when they're not — which is why we start the conversation early.
Commercial fitouts. It's all we do.
