  • High Grade fitout or renovation traditionally costs approx $850 - $1000 per square meter.
These costs are average costs only that have been provided as a guide and should in no way form the basis for commercial decisions. All costs are ex GST.

2. How long will the office fitout take?

The average offcie design and fitout in Sydney takes 5 weeks for a 900m2 fit-out (time on site). This is an average project management time that has been provided as a guide and should in no way form the basis for commercial decisions.

3. What are your normal payment terms?

Apex Executive Interiors normally ask for a 20% deposit with Progress Claims along the way, and request payment within 7 days. This is negotiable, depending on the size of the project.

4. Will you still be there in the morning?

Long after the project is completed Apex Executive Interiors will still be there to assist in whatever way you require us. If a door handle has fallen off or the CEO is coming this afternoon for a surprise visit and some one has accidentally damaged the wall, Apex Executive Interiors will be there.

5. What about additional charges or variations?

Our Policy is simple if you ask for something extra then a variation must be considered, if you don’t ask for it then there will be no variation (as in no additional charge). Apex Executive Interiors do not deliberately exclude things from your quote simply to win projects.

6. What is the lead time on office furniture and workstations?

This is dependant on exactly what office furniture design has been chosen. Some basic office desks can be turned around in 3 working days; some workstations in as little as 2 weeks but normally 3 weeks. Polished Veneer (timber) furniture can take up to 6 weeks. All this needs to be considered at the planning stage so that Apex Executive Interiors can fulfil its commitment to project completion dates.

7. How do I know exactly what I am getting?

Some builders provide quotes with a lump sum i.e. a total cost only.  You have no idea what may have been included or excluded; and this can be a real problem.  All office fitout and furniture quotes from Apex Executive Interiors are fully detailed and you will know exactly what you are paying for.

8. One of the doors is broken on my reception desk?

It doesn’t matter what size your project is, call Apex Executive Interiors and see for yourself.

9. What kind of warranty do you offer?

Traditionally workstations and furniture have a 10 year guarantee and seating 5 years. It does however depend on the type of product selected. Building works have a defect liability period of fifty-two [52] weeks unless otherwise stated.

10. I really don’t know what I want, I just need some help?

Apex Executive Interiors are happy to provide. Whatever the nature of your project or needs - Apex Executive Interiors can help.

11. What are the costs for office design in Sydney?

On a 500–750m2 project they may be as low as $2,000. Having said that if Apex Executive Interiors were to project manage your office fitout, office renovation or office partitions at the same time, in some cases Apex Executive Interiors will absorb these costs.
