We transform empty commercial shells into extraordinary hospitality environments through our comprehensive bar fit-out services. Whether you’re a property developer preparing new venues, a consultant with existing specifications, or a hospitality operator seeking a bespoke drinking establishment, we craft complete solutions tailored precisely to your specific requirements. Our expertise spans both CAT A and CAT B fit-outs, allowing us to support clients at any stage of their hospitality venue development journey.
For property managers and investment groups, we provide comprehensive design development and specification of all base building elements to maximise hospitality potential and commercial value. For consultants and project managers, we offer precise technical execution to bring bar specifications to life while ensuring compliance with licensing regulations and safety standards.
Our CAT A services deliver complete mechanical and electrical installations including hospitality-appropriate HVAC systems, lighting, power distribution, and building management systems. We install high-quality flooring solutions, ceiling systems, and
develop core facilities essential to modern drinking establishments.
Our CAT B services include complete bar space division solutions with service area designs, customer zones, flexible entertainment areas, and specialised floor finishes. We implement tailored lighting schemes to create atmosphere and ambiance, power and data infrastructure for point-of-sale systems and entertainment technology, and integrated systems essential for today’s hospitality experience.
We deliver interiors that align with brand identities, from wall treatments to signature design features, and handle all furniture and equipment installation to create engaging customer journeys through bar areas, seating zones, entertainment spaces, and service facilities.
For hospitality groups seeking to maximise venue value, our process begins with a comprehensive assessment of operational requirements and building potential, followed by strategic specification development that enhances customer experience while controlling costs.
For independent operators and franchisees requiring comprehensive service, we begin with in-depth consultation to understand your brand philosophy and customer experience vision, followed by strategic space planning and creative design development tailored to enhance the drinking and socialising experience.
For consultants and project managers with established plans, we provide detailed technical analysis, value engineering recommendations, and quality implementation with minimal disruption to trading environments.
In all cases, we conduct thorough site assessments, prepare or refine construction documentation, secure necessary approvals including licensing requirements, and manage the entire hospitality construction process. We coordinate all trades, handle furniture and equipment installation, system commissioning, and provide thorough handover including staff training and documentation.
Our process ensures bar spaces are delivered to the highest standard, supporting operational efficiency while providing flexibility for menu changes and future entertainment requirements.
