What is Shell & Core?
Shell & Core refers to the foundational stage of a building, typically provided by developers. The exterior is fully completed, while the interior remains a "shell," equipped with essential features such as main services, floors, doors, windows, basic fire protection, and emergency lighting. This stage is ready for incoming tenants to customize further with their fit-out requirements.
Refurbishment - Shell & Core
At 4construct, we provide expert advice from the feasibility stage, ensuring you have the insights needed before making costly decisions. We handle every detail of your construction project, from planning and design to specialist surveys—including structural assessments and contaminated site investigations—through to building control and Health & Safety compliance. Our goal is to make your project as cost-effective as possible, minimizing surprises and avoiding hidden extras.
Survey and Design
A CAT B office fit-out builds upon a CAT A, transforming the space into a fully functional workplace that’s ready for immediate use.
Typically left for tenants to design, a CAT B fit-out is tailored to the unique needs of the business. It includes creating the right mix of workstations, breakout areas, and meeting rooms. Before the design begins, space planning and workplace consultancy ensure the layout aligns with how employees use the space, resulting in a productive and efficient environment.
A well-executed CAT B fit-out reflects a company’s brand and ethos, creating a workspace employees love while helping attract and retain top talent.

A CAT A office fit-out provides a functional yet neutral starting point, typically featuring a suspended ceiling, lighting, heating, and raised flooring. With its plain, open-plan design, a CAT A fit-out serves as a blank canvas for tenants to customize. This stage allows for personalized finishes, such as breakout areas and workstations, which are introduced during a CAT B fit-out to meet specific operational needs.
