Commercial Refurbishment Sydney

Refurbishments that keep buildings relevant, attract tenants and lift yield.

Commercial Refurbishment

Refurbishment scope

  • Lobby, entry and façade upgrades
  • Bathroom and end-of-trip amenities
  • Services, lighting and energy upgrades
  • Fire safety and accessibility upgrades
  • Vacant tenancy upgrades to attract leasing
  • Staged works in occupied buildings

Ageing commercial buildings lose tenants to newer stock. A targeted refurbishment — entries, amenities, services and finishes — can close that gap for far less than a rebuild.

Refurbishing an occupied building

Works in occupied buildings need careful staging, noise management and communication with tenants. We program refurbishments to keep the building operating.

Questions

Commercial Refurbishment FAQs

Can you work while tenants are in the building?

Yes, with staged and after-hours works.

Do refurbishments need approval?

Most commercial fit-outs need an approval before work starts — either a complying development certificate (CDC) where the work meets the standard criteria, or a development application (DA) to council. We confirm the approval pathway early, along with building code, fire safety and accessibility requirements.

Can you help re-lease the space?

Our sister business DVELOP Real Estate Group handles commercial leasing.
