Capabilities

We’ve been a leading Australian fitout and refurbishment provider for more than 30 years. Whether it is delivering a high-end office fitout or a boutique hotel we have the experience and specific know-how to manage our clients’ unique expectations. Through the high-quality projects we’ve delivered Australia-wide we have become known for our effective approach to delivering projects – never compromising on safety, relentless attention to detail and quality, industry-leading customer service, and staying ‘invisible’ in operational environments.

Our innovative and bespoke modular solutions provide the benefits of off-site construction, including faster schedules, improved safety, minimal on-site disruption, and more sustainable construction. When working in occupied live environments, such as hospitals, schools and sports facilities, our reputation for delivering fast-paced, high-quality, technically challenging construction projects becomes invaluable.

With multiple manufacturing facilities across Australia, we offer nationwide transportation and installation services, supported by our local construction services teams who provide project management services locally.

Our team is proud to have the capabilities, experience and relationships to deliver complicated, ambitious, important builds, especially those requiring well-planned and sensitive approaches to working in live environments and compliance with security requirements. Not only are we experienced on a national level, but through our capital city and key regional branches, we share a wealth of knowledge, resources and specialists across Australia.

Sectors

We have significant experience in delivering complex Defence work and understand the unique and strict requirements that come with sensitive and confidential aspects of these projects. From active security clearances and tailored protocols to Defence specific management plans and programs, we are well equipped to deliver a wide range of projects.

Our experience includes the successful delivery of office fitouts, base building upgrades, building services installation, commissioning, and beyond.

We work with leading universities and schools around the country to deliver inspiring spaces that offer world-class education and attract the best students and staff. With considerable experience across a wide range of specialised spaces including laboratories, libraries, auditoriums and sports facilities, we know how important it is to minimise disruption and prioritise safety while working around teaching schedules and academic calendars.

We built our business on Australia-wide office fitouts and refurbishments, and it’s still a large part of what we do today. With much of our lives spent at work, we know how important it is to create environments that inspire and improve the experience of every employee.

The way we work is constantly evolving, and so too is the workplace itself. Having a trusted partner with vast experience in the sector gives our clients the peace of mind that their spaces are looked after throughout their lease. From building company headquarters and agile offices, to minor alterations, or base building upgrades, our many repeat clients are a testament to our reputation of delivering exceptional working spaces.

We’re focused on delivering high-end shopping spaces, fashion outlets and showrooms as well as banks and customer-service spaces. Designed to showcase our clients’ products and services and excite their customers, retail spaces require unwavering attention to quality and detail. For us, it’s about having stringent defect minimisation strategies and programs with quick turnarounds to ensure our clients’ spaces are up and running quickly and smoothly.
