A Category A (Cat A) strip out is all about preparing a commercial property, typically an office, to a basic, functional state ready for a new tenant's fit-out. For landlords in Garforth, Leeds, and the surrounding areas, this means transforming a previously occupied or new build into a 'shell' with essential services in place. This includes removing old fixtures, fittings, non-load-bearing walls, flooring, and suspended ceilings, creating a clean, open-plan space. We leave behind crucial elements like raised access flooring, basic lighting, fire detection systems, and core services like air conditioning and electrical distribution, ready for the incoming tenant to design and brand their ideal working environment. It's about providing a clear, empty canvas for future bespoke office design.

Category B (Cat B) strip outs are often required when a tenant is vacating an office space. This service involves the complete removal of a previous tenant's specific fit-out elements, returning the property to a predefined 'shell' or Cat A condition, as stipulated in the lease agreement – often referred to as dilapidation works. For businesses in Garforth and beyond, this means taking out everything that was part of their bespoke internal design: all partitioning, reception areas, specialised lighting, bespoke flooring, kitchenettes, meeting rooms, data cabling, and any branding elements. Our team meticulously clears the space, ensuring it meets the landlord's requirements and is prepared for the next phase, saving you time and potential disputes.
