Commercial fit-out in London

Fit-outs for coffee shops, cafés and small retail units, from the landlord’s white box to opening day, and refurbishment for managing agents. We have delivered in buildings where JLL (LaSalle), Ashby Capital and Brackenbury Property Management set the rules.

From white box to trading

Ground-floor units in managed and mixed-use buildings

Coffee shops and small shops often open in ground-floor units below offices or flats, where the landlord sets working hours, fire alarm rules and approvals. We price and plan around those from the start.

  • Landlord fit-out guide read before we price
  • Equipment and furniture on their own priced list
  • Approvals and long-lead items planned against your opening date

Reviews

What leaseholders wrote

Unedited, from our Trustpilot page.

  • This team replaced the front-door of our flat (and a few others in our building) due to upgraded fire-safety regulations, and we are very impressed with the outcome. Prompt and responsive communication to all of us, clear quotation and billing terms, and superb execution to plan (there was a slight hiccup to schedule but again, well managed and to expectations). Overall, the quality of the door and its implementation was to our satisfaction -- indeed a hassle-free experience!

What commercial fit-out work do you do in London?

Coffee shop and café fit-outs from landlord white box units, including counters and joinery, services, WCs and finishes, plus external refurbishment and fire door replacement for managing agents.

How much does a coffee shop fit-out cost in London?

Our planner gives £135,000 to £201,000 for a 750 sq ft unit from white box at a standard finish, including equipment, contingency and VAT.

60 Degrees Coffee in the Greycoat Store Building, St James’s, and Treelogy in The Kensington Building, Kensington.

Can you work within a landlord’s fit-out guide?

Yes. We read the landlord’s fit-out guide before pricing, so working hours, deliveries and fire alarm connection are reflected in the schedule and programme.
