THE CHALLENGE

Executing Store Fit-Outs and Brand Upgrades Without Trading Downtime

Most Retails and restaurant we’re called into have the same three problems. We document the building as it actually is today, so your team can plan the next move from facts, not assumptions.

Fit-outs designed against unreliable landlord drawings

The drawings handed over by the landlord or previous tenant are outdated, incomplete, or don’t reflect what’s actually there. Fit-out design teams discover the discrepancies onsite during construction.

Brand rollouts that have to fit non-standard sites

Your brand has a fit-out template, but every unit is a different shape, different ceiling height, different services routing. Without a current measured survey of each unit, every rollout becomes a custom job.

Trading downtime is expensive and limited

Stores and restaurants can’t close for a survey. Traditional surveys interrupt trading; rushed surveys produce errors that show up later.

WHAT WE DELIVER

Drawings and Models Built Specifically for Retail Fit-Outs

We deliver the documentation retail design teams, brand teams, and fit-out contractors actually use. Accurate measured surveys of sales floors, back-of-house, kitchens, storage areas, and service routing. Existing conditions Revit models that capture the unit as it is today.

Every drawing and model is built from verified 3D laser scan data, captured discreetly during off-peak or out-of-hours windows. Whether you need a single store documented or a brand portfolio rolled out across hundreds of sites, the deliverable is consistent. Michael personally signs off every drawing set before it leaves us.

OUR APPROACH

Built Around Trading Hours, Not Closed Stores

High-velocity commercial spatial assets optimized for fast-track store design, joinery coordination, and national franchise portfolio rollouts.

01
Out-of-hours, overnight, or early morning capture

Most retail surveys happen before opening, after closing, or during scheduled close days. Restaurants are typically scanned in the morning or after service.

02
Fast, discreet capture for active sites

Where the unit can’t close, we capture during quieter trading periods with a small team working quickly.

03
Coordination with landlord, brand, and site teams
Every scan is agreed with the site manager, the landlord where required, and the brand or property team commissioning the work.
