Building work for local businesses
Commercial properties need to be functional, presentable and well maintained. Whether you are fitting out new premises, updating a tired shop or office, or dealing with repairs that affect your business, we take a practical, organised approach that takes your business requirements into account.
Commercial work we carry out
- Refurbishment: updating offices, shops, studios and treatment rooms
- Alterations: new partitions, openings, doors and layout changes
- Plastering and decorating: walls, ceilings and woodwork, inside and out
- Joinery: doors, partitions, counters, shelving and timber repairs
- Kitchens and washrooms: staff kitchens, toilets and welfare facilities
- Repairs and maintenance: making good damage and keeping the building in good order
Working around your business
Every business is different. We talk to you about opening hours, deliveries, access for staff and customers, noise and dust before work starts, and agree an approach that keeps disruption manageable. Where practical, work can be phased so parts of the premises stay open.
Landlords and property managers
We also work with landlords and property managers on vacant units, refurbishment between tenants and repairs to commercial buildings across Newcastle upon Tyne, Tynemouth and nearby areas.
Permissions and building control
Some commercial alterations need building regulations approval, and changes to shopfronts or uses can need planning permission. Leases may also require the landlord's consent. We help you identify what is likely to apply so it can be dealt with before the work is scheduled.
For ongoing upkeep, see building repairs and maintenance, and our commercial property maintenance checklist.
