For operators and landlords
Coffee shops, cafés and small retail units, from the landlord’s white box to opening day.
60 Degrees Coffee, St James’s. Fit-out by Mount St Projects.
A ground-floor unit in a managed building comes with rules: working hours, delivery windows, fire alarm connections and the landlord’s sign-off on every drawing. We read the fit-out guide before we price, plan the programme around approvals and your opening date, and keep equipment and furniture on a priced list of their own. We have delivered in buildings where JLL (LaSalle), Ashby Capital and Brackenbury Property Management set the rules.

From white box to trading
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.

Greycoat Store Building, Greycoat Place, St James’s
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!
