During the retail fit-out process, we help with the planning, building and maintenance stages of shop fittings.

Retail Strip Outs & Defits

A Retail Strip Out, or Defit, is the process of removing semi-permanent structures and facilities. This is to return the retail property to its original empty state, also known as a ‘white box.’ It is to make sure that the space is easy to work with so that a new fit-out process can take place.

If your retail store is moving location, then a defit is needed to fulfil any lease agreements you signed. This is so you can receive your bond back and have no issues leasing a new property. 

Here in Melbourne, a retail defit is required for most shop property renters who are either vacating the premises or are ending the initial lease agreement. The legal process can be lengthy and complicated, but luckily, our experts take care of that for you. If you have any questions about your retail property end-of-lease, you can also contact us at 03 9326 3146.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is The Process For A Retail Fitout?
A retail fitout begins with the design phase, starting with an initial concept, incorporating branding elements and finalising the design. Next, a project plan is drawn up, which covers all tasks and timelines. After that, materials, furniture and equipment are sourced, and then construction begins. A retail fitout service provider will manage all supplies and trades to deliver the project. The fitout process also involves working with the client and external parties, such as shopping centre management or the local council, to ensure any requirements are met and to obtain approvals. The final step is to ensure everything is clean, functional, fully set up, and ready for handover to the client.
What Types Of Retail Businesses Can Benefit from Fitout Services?
A well-designed retail space is vital to its success in any industry. A retail fitout not only determines the store’s visual appeal to its customers but also impacts the store’s functionality and, ultimately, its profitability. Any retail business will benefit from a well-considered fitout, including fashion boutiques, specialty stores, supermarkets, factory outlets and stores that combine retail with experiences or services.
How Long Does It Take To Complete a Retail Fitout Project?
The time it takes to deliver a retail fitout can vary quite substantially, depending upon factors such as the size of the space, complexity of design, and the finishes to be achieved. External factors can also have an impact, such as the availability of supplies and the time it takes for any approvals to be granted. In general, most retail fitouts will take between a few weeks and a few months. Contact Symmetry Commercial to obtain a timeline estimate for your own custom fitout.
