Having serviced countless businesses across Melbourne, we have the expertise required to deliver defit in a timely, efficient manner.

Working with a large team of qualified, experienced project managers, builders, and tradespeople, we can deliver a comprehensive service that most contractors can’t match. From soft defits (loose fixtures, small furniture, and fittings) to hard defits (carpets, cabinets, flooring, HVAC, and more), we can carry out any services that your business requires, including (but not limited to):
- Removal of temporary floors and ceilings
- Partition removal
- Furniture removal (including built-in workstations and office dividers)

From Defit to Refit
If you have no intentions of leaving your current office or commercial location, leave the entire renovation process to us as well. Outside of our defitting expertise, our team has carried out multiple, award-winning fitouts for businesses all over Melbourne. We work with you from defit to refit, helping you redesign a space that’s functional, pleasing to the eye, and promotes office productivity.
This isn’t a routine, messy demolition. Our all-in-one service takes into consideration the reusability and resale value of your office equipment. Should you decide to reuse certain components in your next fitout, or resell older equipment, we’ll remove these items with care. We organise skip bins for waste and will leave your office completely spotless at the end of the service.

The Process
Planning Phase
Our team meets with you to discuss your business needs and expectations. From you, we’ll get a general idea of the size of your space, and learn what needs to be removed, defitted, and disposed of. We’ll also review your make good clause to ensure we defit to your landlord’s exact expectations. If you will be using the space afterwards, we’ll also discuss potential fitout concepts to refit the space.
Proposal
We prepare proposals based on the brief from the initial meeting where we go through and decide how we will complete the defit in a way that meets all of your contractual requirements. This is where we get feedback from you so we can proceed to the next step. We offer cost-effective solutions for an affordable refit, so your budget is always top of mind.
Site Commencement
All costs are agreed upon during this stage and the outline of the project and timelines are discussed. We organise all relevant permits to be approved and issue you with a final Project Schedule.
Construction
We carefully source and recruit the right contractors for each job within the project. We work with our team of project managers and tradespeople and ensure there will always be a qualified team onsite to complete the defit within a reasonable time frame. Team leaders conduct routine site visits with you so you can check in on the defit and how it is coming together.
At completion, we conduct a handover to you after ensuring you’ve had a thorough walk-through of the new space and are happy with your completed project. We continue to work with you to take care of any additional needs and ensure they are resolved in readiness for your relocation.
Bond Back Guarantee
Don’t try to do it all on your own. Tenants who choose to complete a defit internally may overlook the fine print within their make-good clause. When it’s time to hand over the keys, they’re hit with contract breaches that eat into their bond, leaving them with unsteady cash flow during their transition into a new location.
We’ll work with you and your landlord to make sure the defit is done to exacting specifications. Worry about the next step in your business journey, we’ll handle all the dirty work.
