Refurbishment · Occupied Tenancy
Not every tenancy can be emptied for a refurbishment. DYME plans and delivers refreshes of occupied offices and tenancies in zones, so that the business keeps working while finishes, joinery and services are renewed around it.
A tenancy refresh typically renews floor and wall finishes, ceilings and lighting, joinery, meeting rooms, kitchens and amenities, and may reconfigure part of the floor plate. Unlike a full fitout, the business remains in the space, which means the works have to coexist with people, furniture, technology and daily operations.
The constraints are practical: dust and noise control, maintaining safe egress and services to the areas still in use, protecting equipment and data, and keeping the client’s staff informed about what is happening where and when.
Planning starts by dividing the floor into zones and agreeing with the client how teams will move between them. Each zone is sequenced from strip-out through services, ceilings, finishes and joinery to furniture reinstatement, with temporary partitions and protection separating the live zone from the working office.
Disruptive activities such as demolition, drilling and floor finishes are placed in after-hours or weekend windows, and services isolations are agreed with the building manager so that the rest of the tenancy and the floors around it keep operating.
Each zone is completed, cleaned and inspected before it is handed back and the next is taken, so the business always has a defined working area and a clear picture of what comes next. Quality records are kept zone by zone and defects are closed before reoccupation.
Communication with the client’s staff is managed through agreed notices and a single point of contact. For a Sydney or NSW occupied tenancy refresh enquiry, share the address, floor area, headcount, the areas and finishes in scope, design stage, available after-hours windows, target completion and a budget range.
