Q: Can Existing Furniture, Partitions and Fittings Be Reused?

Yes, where they remain in good condition and suit the proposed layout. Creed-Miles can assess what should be retained, adapted or replaced before the new design is finalised.

Q: Can Creed-Miles Supply the Furniture?

Yes. We can supply and install desks, task chairs, meeting tables, storage, reception seating, acoustic pods and collaborative furniture as part of a complete CAT B Office Fit Out.

Q: What Happens to a CAT B Fit Out at the End of the Lease?

The lease may require the tenant to remove some or all of its alterations and return the premises to an agreed condition. Our CAT A Office Fit Out and Reinstatement service explains this process in more detail.

Q: Can Creed-Miles Manage the Complete Project?

Yes. We can manage the project from the initial survey and planning through to partitioning, flooring, furniture, installation and handover. The scope, responsibilities, costs and timescales will be agreed before work begins.

Q: How Long Does a Cat A Reinstatement Take?

It depends on the size of the premises and the extent of the work involved. A small, straightforward office might take one to two weeks; a larger or more complex project could take four to eight weeks or more. We can give a firm programme once we've surveyed the premises.

Q: What is the Difference Between Cat A and Cat A Plus?

Cat A is an open-plan space with the fundamental building services in place. Cat A Plus adds facilities such as meeting rooms, a kitchen and floor finishes, letting a new tenant occupy the office more quickly.
