OFFICE REFURBISHMENT SERVICES AND SPACE PLANNING

If your workplace feels tired or cramped, office refurbishment is a better solution than office relocation. We can redesign, refurnish and revamp your office to utilise space you didn't even know you had – space that makes a lasting impression on your staff and clients.

Whatever the size of your workplace, whatever the style you're after, we'll evaluate, plan, design and build the office interior you want. Our detailed consultation process will ensure we design a completely bespoke look, feel and functionality your business needs.

We only use our own installation staff for partitioning, electrical, cabling, telecoms and IT work with quality-approved suppliers to source and install high quality furnishings. All our services include peace of mind for you from single experienced and reliable source.

Don’t just take our word for it! Ask one of our consultants to provide details of testimonials from satisfied customers.

The Process

From initial consultation through to final sign-off and approval, you will be guided through a proven practice to achieve the results you want.

Consultancy

Workplace appraisal
Before we do a thing, we'll form an accurate picture of your workspace needs, both for now and for the future. We want to ensure that you see maximum return on your investment.

First, we'll draw up a project brief detailing your agreed project aims and challenges, as well as your workplace's general specification, design and IT needs.

Second, we'll conduct a space evaluation to give an accurate assessment of the space you need. We'll take into account your existing working methods and storage requirements, plus your overall business objectives and predicted changes in staff levels and office culture.

Third, if you are relocating, we'll do a building appraisal to ensure you select the right building. We'll work with your commercial agent to give comparative evaluations covering space efficiency, fitting out, running costs and timescales.

Office ergonomics
Eye strain, back pain, office health and safety – are all vital matters of the modern working office. We will assist you in avoiding any of these problems by improving the ergonomics of your office space. From fire fighting kit to wrist-friendly keyboards, we provide the knowledge and equipment you need to help your people and your workplace get along.

Our team of experts has all the practical know-how on office furniture and equipment, and can advise you on health and safety risk assessments, employer obligations, training and all things ergonomic.

Office space planning
We can do a lot with the office space you've got. With careful office space planning, we can significantly enhance - and often enlarge - your existing workplace.

Construction/Fit-Out

Office design and build
'Design and build' is a term used to describe a way of assigning both design and construction phases of a project to one company. It's a service that we offer and it comes with many benefits. First of all, you have the advantage of dealing with one company – Barrington’s - to manage every aspect of your office design and build. That's one point of contact, one point of responsibility. Not a whole multitude of contractors to chase, supervise and coordinate.

Indeed, research by the Chartered Institute of Building found the design and build approach came in typically 40% faster and 15% cheaper than traditional multi-contractor methods.

So the benefits of using us to do your entire office design and build include:

  • Single point of responsibility means no pointing of fingers. No one else to blame. We carry complete accountability and we guarantee delivery on time and on budget. Multiple contractors simply can't make that promise.
  • Faster completion times. Because we're one company we can overlap project phases, which means a project finished faster.
  • Less expensive. More often than not, using multiple contractors leads to project overruns. With us, your office design and build costs are agreed upfront, and we stick to them.
  • Better understanding of your brief. You need only brief one company and we invest a lot of effort into understanding you and your organisation.
  • Less hassle. That's our job - to manage everything. You can be involved as much or as little as you want.

Project management
Having designed your new office space, we'll come in and build it, using our own skilled craftsmen and quality-approved suppliers.

Delivering your office fit out project on time and on budget demands flawless management. We pride ourselves on the unrivalled quality of our project managers.

Your project manager is your primary point of contact for the entire construction phase.

  • Your project manager is responsible for all site activity, from planning right through to handover.
  • Your project manager will liaise with the landlord and statutory authorities, handle site investigations, appoint contractors and direct the change control procedure including health and safety and quality management.
  • Your project manager will ensure that Barrington's performance promise is fulfilled so that your office refurbishment project is delivered on time, on budget and to the highest possible standard.


Office refurbishment
Our staff are experienced and sympathetic to your business needs. Remember from the out set we have made it a key part of our brief to ensure there is as little disruption to your daily routines as is necessary.

Office furniture
The beauty of being an independent company is that we're not tied to any one office furniture supplier. So we can pick and choose the bespoke office furniture and office furnishings that suit your brief, your business and your budget. And we're pretty picky.

Bespoke office furniture
No single manufacturer produces the best chair, best desk and best storage system. We combine the finest office furnishings in their class. And, as always, you can enjoy the benefit of one single contact. When sourcing your bespoke office furniture we'll ensure a cohesive formula and coordinate the logistics of multiple office furniture suppliers, on time and without disruption.

Contemporary, executive office furniture
We do executive office furniture, contemporary office furniture and designer office furniture. But, while we're office furniture supply specialists, we don't just order it in and leave you to it. We'll handle all your office furnishing too. So we'll install your desks, blinds and boardroom seating with the best design layout in mind.


Health & Safety

We will take into consideration every aspect of Health & Safety in your new office and during the construction stages.
