Our commercial office fitout and refurbishment teams transform design concepts into reality with a complete turnkey service. From electrical works and flooring to bespoke joinery, partitioning, glazing, HVAC and more, every element is tailored to your space, project requirements and business objectives.

Every project is overseen by an experienced Site Supervisor and Project Manager, ensuring disciplined delivery, minimal disruption and a high-quality finish, completed on time, on budget and to exacting standards. As one of the UK’s trusted commercial office fit-out companies, we create spaces that perform as well as they look.

Office Fit-Outs Tailored to Your Needs

Our expert fit-out and refurbishment teams bring spaces to life across offices, schools, universities, healthcare facilities and laboratories. We have successfully delivered projects ranging from 3,000 to 40,000 square feet, with every project tailored to the client’s vision and operational requirements.

Our commercial office fit out services include dilapidations, CAT-A and CAT-B fit-outs and refurbishments, as well as CAT A Plus or ‘plug and play’ offices. These combine CAT-A and CAT-B works with furniture packages to create fully operational, ready-to-use spaces.

Whether you’re planning a complete workplace transformation or an office refurbishment in Yorkshire or beyond, we provide a solution that aligns with your business goals, budget and programme.

Dilapidations Made Easy

Whether you’re a tenant, landlord or building surveyor, we make dilapidations straightforward and stress-free. Ben Johnson Interiors delivers comprehensive dilapidation services, restoring commercial spaces efficiently and professionally.

Our experienced team guides you through every stage, from the initial assessment to identifying and completing the required reinstatement works and repairs. We ensure compliance with lease agreements, maintain high standards throughout and leave the property ready for its next phase with minimal disruption.

From Shell to Ready-to-Occupy with CAT-A

Working with landlords, tenants and building surveyors, our CAT-A fit-outs provide the essential foundation for a space to become fully functional and ready for occupation. Covering heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting, toilets and tea points, CAT-A delivers the core elements required for a compliant, comfortable and flexible commercial environment.

As experienced office refurbishment consultants, we help clients make informed decisions throughout the process, balancing performance, flexibility and long-term value. It’s the ideal starting point for landlords, developers and businesses preparing a flexible, high-performing space for the next stage of its interior design and commercial office fit-out journey.

Transform Your Space with CAT-B

CAT-B fit-outs transform a CAT-A space into a fully customised, high-performing interior. From mechanical and electrical upgrades to partitioning, feature lighting, acoustic treatments, commercial flooring, kitchens, bespoke joinery and furniture, CAT-B provides everything required to bring your design vision to life.

It’s the ideal solution for creating a functional, stylish and tailored environment that reflects your brand while supporting operational efficiency and the way your people work. As an experienced commercial office fit out contractor, we ensure every detail is carefully managed and delivered to the highest standard.

Ready to Go: CAT A Plus

Ben Johnson has partnered with landlords and building surveyors to deliver fully finished, move-in-ready spaces that are agile, design-led, and ready for immediate occupation. Projects can incorporate strip-out, CAT A, CAT B and furniture within a single coordinated package.

The popularity of CAT-A Plus, or ‘plug and play’ offices, continues to grow, offering tenants speed, convenience, and no long lead times on fit-out or furniture, all at a predictable cost included within the lease. For employers, it provides flexible, inspiring workspaces that attract employees back to the office while combining style, functionality, and efficiency in one seamless commercial office fitout solution.

Our Fit-Out Procurement Process

At Ben Johnson Interiors, every project is managed to the highest standard. A director and owner personally oversees all construction projects, from estimation to delivery, ensuring consistency, quality, and accountability at every stage.

From the outset, you are assigned a dedicated fit-out estimator who works closely with your designer during the concept phase. This collaboration ensures your design is not only visually compelling but also cost-efficient, practical, and optimised for lead times, helping your project progress seamlessly from initial brief through to final handover.

Understanding office refurbishment cost is a key part of the planning process. Our transparent approach provides clear budgeting guidance from the earliest stages, helping clients maximise value while avoiding unexpected costs. For businesses considering office refurbishment in Yorkshire and beyond, our team can provide guidance across design, specification, procurement and delivery, creating a clear route from your initial requirements to a completed workplace.

Sustainable Refurbishment for the Modern Workplace

A sustainable office refurbishment can improve employee wellbeing, reduce operating costs and support your organisation’s environmental objectives. We work with clients to identify energy-efficient systems, responsible materials and smart design solutions that minimise waste while creating healthier, more productive workplaces.

Sustainability can be considered throughout the commercial office fit out process, from retaining and reusing existing elements where appropriate to selecting efficient building systems, finishes and furniture with long-term performance in mind.

Your Dedicated Delivery Team

Once your project is awarded, you’ll meet your Ben Johnson Interiors delivery team, including a Site Supervisor and Project Manager employed directly by us. Your Project Manager oversees the entire fit-out, managing subcontractors, health and safety, budget and programme delivery.

They act as your main point of contact, coordinating progress meetings, producing weekly updates and maintaining consistent quality throughout the project. Our delivery team proactively manages snagging to minimise issues at handover and continues to support you post-completion, resolving any remaining items and helping maintain operational excellence.

Whether you require a complete office refurbishment in Yorkshire, a large-scale commercial office fit out in Leeds, or specialist guidance on a commercial office fitout project, our team delivers high-quality workplaces designed to support your people, strengthen your brand and drive business performance.
