"ALL-IN" FIT OUT COST
What is the difference between an office fit out, retrofit and reinstatement?
Office Fit Out:
This is the process of transforming an empty or shell space into a fully functional office. It includes everything from flooring and
ceilings to partitions, lighting, and furniture—tailored to meet the tenant’s needs.
Retrofit:
A retrofit focuses on upgrading or modernizing an existing office space, often to improve energy efficiency, incorporate smart
technologies, or enhance overall functionality without a complete overhaul.
Reinstatement:
This involves returning a leased office to its original condition before handing it back to the landlord. It typically includes
removing partitions, restoring original finishes, and ensuring compliance with lease agreements.
