Fit-Out

Fit-Out

Part of Danesbury Group

Existing buildings, made ready for their next use.

Danesbury delivers interior fit-out, refurbishment and conversion for commercial, hospitality and residential clients. We take responsibility for the whole interior, coordinating strip-out, services, partitions, joinery and finishes within one programme.

Fit-Out shares the leadership, commercial controls and delivery commitments of Danesbury Construction, applied to the coordination and finish of interiors within existing buildings. We take on projects from £250,000 to £7.5 million, across commercial, hospitality and residential fit-out and refurbishment, for private clients, developers and professional partners.

For clients without a design in hand, our design team can develop the initial concept, then carry it through to a finished interior under one programme and one point of contact.

What we fit out

Illustrative office fit-out with exposed white-painted services, linear pendant lighting, an oak joinery wall and a glazed meeting room

01

Commercial

Workplaces, retail units and offices fitted out around how the space is actually used, with services and finishes planned together from the start. Our design team can be involved from the outset, not only after a scheme is fixed.

Bar and dining area with timber trestle tables, exposed concrete soffit, brick wall with cast-iron radiators and an illuminated BAR sign

02

Hospitality

Food halls, bars and venues where layout, services and specialist installations have to come together on a fixed opening date. Where a concept isn’t yet defined, our design team develops it before the programme begins.

03

Residential

Refurbishment and conversion of existing buildings into homes, carried out with care for the fabric that is already there. The same design team can shape the initial layout where one isn’t already in place.

Where we work

01

Workplace and offices

Conversions, refurbishment and multi-let accommodation, planned around how occupiers use the space and how landlords let it.

02

Hospitality and leisure

Food, beverage and customer-facing premises where finish, servicing and opening dates carry equal weight.

03

Healthcare and specialist environments

Adaptations shaped around operational requirements, so the building supports the people working in it.

04

Industrial and self-storage

Practical, efficient internal fit-outs that make the most of the available floor area.

05

Existing buildings

Refurbishment and change-of-use projects that give established buildings a new working life.
