Overview

Commercial work runs on different constraints to residential. Landlord and centre management approvals, induction requirements, restricted access windows, trading neighbours and a handover date that is tied to a lease commencement rather than a preference. Orange Projects delivers small to mid-sized commercial building work across the Gold Coast and Brisbane. We are set up for tenancy fit-outs, refurbishments and make-goods where programming and communication matter as much as the build itself, and we work nights and weekends where a business cannot afford to close.

What's included

  • Retail and office tenancy fit-outs
  • Refurbishments and internal reconfigurations
  • Partitioning, wall framing and ceiling works
  • Commercial doors, hardware and joinery
  • Flooring, painting and finishes
  • Make-goods and defit at lease end
  • Accessibility and compliance upgrades
  • Landlord, centre management and certifier coordination
  • Reactive and scheduled commercial maintenance

Fit-outs programmed around trading

The cost of a commercial job is rarely just the build - it is the days a tenancy cannot trade. We plan the program backwards from your open date, sequence noisy and dusty work into approved windows, and run night or weekend shifts where the centre or building requires it. Site protection, dust control and daily clean-down are part of the scope, not an afterthought.

Approvals, inductions and documentation

Most commercial tenancies require landlord approval of drawings, contractor inductions, insurance certificates, SWMS and sometimes a certifier. We handle that paperwork as part of mobilisation so the first day on site is actually a working day rather than an administrative one.

Make-goods and lease-end works

Make-good obligations are often ambiguous until the exit inspection. We read the lease schedule, price the reinstatement scope realistically, and deliver it to a standard the landlord will accept first time - partitions removed, services capped, ceilings and floors reinstated, walls painted and the tenancy handed back clean.

Ongoing commercial maintenance

Beyond project work, we provide reactive and scheduled maintenance for Gold Coast and Brisbane commercial properties - carpentry repairs, door and hardware servicing, patching, damage repairs and preventative works across single sites or portfolios.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a commercial fit-out cost on the Gold Coast?

Fit-out costs generally run $800-$2,500 per square metre depending on whether the tenancy is a shell or an existing space, the level of joinery and finishes, and services requirements. We provide a line-itemised fixed-price quote after inspecting the tenancy and reviewing the drawings.

Can you work after hours so we keep trading?

Yes. Night and weekend programs are common for us, particularly in shopping centres and multi-tenanted buildings with restricted access windows and noise limits.

Do you handle make-goods?

Yes. We price and deliver lease-end make-good works including partition removal, service capping, ceiling and floor reinstatement, patching and painting, to the standard set out in your lease.

What size projects do you take on?

Small to mid-sized commercial works - typically retail and office tenancies, refurbishments, maintenance packages and fit-outs rather than large-scale new construction.

Are you licensed and insured for commercial work?

Yes. Orange Projects holds QBCC Licence No. 15620733 and carries public liability and works insurance, with certificates and SWMS supplied for landlord and centre inductions.
