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.
Many South East offices are 1980s and 1990s business-park buildings where upgrading lighting, ceilings and air conditioning gives the biggest improvement for the budget.

Frequently asked questions
How much does category B fit-out cost in Kent?
Prices in Kent 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.
How quickly can you survey in Kent?
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 Canterbury, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Dover and Maidstone?
Yes. We carry out category B fit-out throughout Kent, including Canterbury, Royal Tunbridge Wells, Dover, Maidstone, and across all 66 postcode districts in the area.
