Category A fit-out explained

A Category A (Cat A) fit-out is the base-build finish a landlord provides so a floor can be let: suspended ceilings, raised floors, lighting, heating and cooling, and finished perimeter walls, with no tenant-specific rooms.

Category A fit-out for Cardiff businesses

Cat A work is usually commissioned by landlords, agents and developers preparing space for a new tenant. The aim is a clean, compliant, open floor that a tenant's own designer can plan into.

We coordinate the ceiling grid, raised floor, lighting layout and mechanical services so the finished shell is ready for Cat B works without rework.

Welsh office fit-outs span modern waterfront and business-park space and older town-centre buildings where improving comfort and energy use is the main aim.
