Office white boxing in Montague Gardens
For a Montague Gardens office handover, white boxing should begin with the lease specification rather than an assumption that everything must be stripped out. DCBC assesses redundant non-structural partitions and fittings, retained installations, surface repairs and the neutral finishes required for the next use. Where an office forms part of a warehouse unit, identify exactly where the handover scope starts and ends. Photographs, an inventory and the landlord's instructions help prevent confusion about ownership. Electrical, mechanical and other specialist alterations require their own agreed scope before strip-out starts.
Plan your
Montague Gardens work.
Tell us the address, work area and timing before we quote. These points help us assess the work for your premises.
- Define whether the scope covers offices only or other agreed areas.
- Obtain the landlord's white-box specification and retained-item list.
- Confirm access, debris routes and any service-isolation responsibilities.
Coverage, site access, travel costs and availability are confirmed with your written quote. Sending an enquiry does not book the work.

Office white boxing.
Montague Gardens questions.
Can you white box only the office part of our unit?
Yes, the office boundary and affected surfaces can be assessed as a defined scope. Warehouse equipment, structural elements and specialist services are not assumed to be included.
Should tenant fittings be removed before assessment?
Identify ownership and what the landlord wants retained first. Agreed removal can be quoted, but belongings and service-connected fittings must be clearly identified before work proceeds.
What does office white boxing include?
The term varies between buildings and leases. We use your landlord or lease specification to agree what is removed, repaired, retained and finished, with each item recorded in the project quote.
Can you prepare an office after a tenant moves out?
Yes. Once the premises are available for assessment, we can scope removal of agreed tenant alterations, making good and final cleaning against the required handover standard.
Will electrical and aircon systems be changed?
Only if those works are specifically scoped and quoted. Existing services, isolation requirements and any specialist contractors must be agreed before strip-out starts.
Does an enquiry or estimate confirm a booking?
No. We confirm availability, access, scope and all charges in a written quote before you decide to book. No payment is taken on this website.
