Commercial strip-outs
Soft strip of fit-outs back to shell, with materials separated for recycling where they can be.
Get a quoteA strip-out is demolition inside a building that is usually still in use. Lifts, loading docks, other tenants and building management all have to keep working. We plan the strip around them, keep the dust and noise inside the tenancy, and leave the space ready for the next fit-out or the landlord's make-good inspection.
What's included
Office strip-outs
Partitions, ceilings, floor coverings, joinery and services removed back to base building.

Shopfronts, fixtures, counters and fit-outs removed for the next tenant or a refurbishment.
Make-good works
Tenancies returned to the condition the lease requires, ready for the landlord's inspection.
Soft strip before demolition
Non-structural fittings and finishes removed so the structure can be demolished cleanly.

Electrical, data and mechanical services isolated and made safe before removal.
Recycling
Metals, timber, plasterboard, carpet tiles and glass separated where they can be recycled.
Back to shell, with the rest of the building still running.
How we run it
Every strip-out job follows the same order, so nothing is missed and the next trade gets a site they can start on.
- 01
Walk the space
Inspect the tenancy, check the lease make-good requirements and agree access with building management.
- 02
Isolate
Services isolated and made safe, and the work area separated from occupied parts of the building.
- 03
Strip
Fit-out removed in a planned order with materials sorted as they come out.
- 04
Remove
Waste taken out through agreed routes and times so the building's lifts and docks keep working.
- 05
Hand back
Space cleaned and handed back ready for inspection or the next fit-out.
Common questions
Can you work while the rest of the building is occupied?
That is normal for strip-outs. The work is planned around building access, loading docks and the other tenants.
Do you do make-good to the lease?
Yes. We work from the lease make-good requirements so the tenancy passes the landlord's inspection.
What if there is asbestos in the fit-out?
We remove it as part of the same job, with clearance before the strip continues.
