Category B fit-out explained
A Category B (Cat B) fit-out is the tenant's own fit-out on top of a Cat A shell: meeting rooms, offices, kitchens, breakout areas, furniture, finishes and branding designed around how the business works.

Because Cat B often means altering a Cat A ceiling or floor, we check lighting, sprinkler heads, smoke detection and floor box positions against the new layout before any walls go up.
Cat B is where the office becomes yours. We start from how many people use the space, how they meet and what they need to store, then build the layout and finishes to suit.
Office space in the South West is spread between city centres such as Bristol and Exeter, out-of-town business parks and converted rural and harbour-side buildings.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly can you survey in Dorset?
We usually offer survey dates within a week of your enquiry, sooner for urgent projects.
What is the difference between Cat A and Cat B?
Cat A is the landlord's open, serviced shell. Cat B is the tenant's layout, rooms and finishes built into that shell.
Do we need landlord consent for Cat B works?
Almost always. Most leases require a licence for alterations, and we supply the drawings and method statements the landlord's surveyor asks for.
Do you cover Weymouth?
Yes. We carry out category B fit-out throughout Dorset, including Weymouth, and across all 20 postcode districts in the area.
How much does category B fit-out cost in Dorset?
Prices in Dorset generally sit within national ranges; access, working hours and specification move the number more than location. A free survey gives you a fixed, itemised price.
