Office Reinstatement
Is it time to hand your office space back to your landlord? Ending a lease involves more than just packing up and moving on. A crucial and often-overlooked part of that process is the office reinstatement which is the task of restoring the space to its original condition.
At the end of a commercial office lease, tenants are usually required to reinstate the premises to its original “base building” condition. This typically involves removing all tenant improvements and restoring mechanical, electrical, fire protection and plumbing works to landlord standards. Walls are patched and repainted, ceilings and flooring repaired or replaced, and the space cleaned and made good for handover . An office reinstatement demands close attention to detail and professional expertise.
Fulfilling the terms of your lease agreement is crucial for a successful handover. Our team specialises in workplace design and build, managing the entire process with care and efficiency to uphold the highest standards.

We offer a complete range of services designed to restore your office space. Whether you’re looking for a few modifications or a comprehensive strip-out, we provide solutions tailored to your needs.
Full Office Reinstatement
Our full office reinstatement services cover the complete removal of all temporary structures added by the tenant, such as partitions, custom fixtures, and flooring. This includes restoring the walls, ceilings, and all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems to their original condition.
Partial Reinstatement
A partial surrender of a tenancy typically requires subdivision works, reinstatement of the returned area to base building condition, and reconfiguration of services so that both spaces are functional and compliant. This usually involves constructing a demising wall, removing tenant fit-outs, reconfiguring MEP services and ensuring fire and safety systems are adapted to the new layout. The landlord expects the area surrendered to be clean, functional, and ready for re-letting.
