Refresh, don't relocate

Your building has good bones. It just needs a facelift.

Commercial buildings age. Lobbies look dated, offices feel tired, amenities fall behind market standard, and tenants start looking elsewhere. A well-planned refurbishment refreshes the building, retains tenants, and lifts rental values, at a fraction of the cost of new construction.

METCON delivers commercial refurbishments in occupied buildings, working around tenants, trading hours, and building management requirements. We plan the staging, manage the disruption, and deliver the upgrade without shutting the building down.

Whether it's a lobby modernisation, an office floor refurbishment, common area upgrade, or a full building facelift, we manage the project so the building keeps operating.

Is this you?

Six signs your building needs refurbishment

If any of these sound familiar, it is worth a free site visit. We will tell you straight what your site needs.

Lobby and common areas look dated

First impressions count. A tired lobby and common areas push prospective tenants to newer buildings.

Tenants are leaving or not renewing

When tenants cite the building condition as a reason for leaving, refurbishment pays for itself in retained rent.

Amenities don't meet current market standard

End-of-trip facilities, accessible bathrooms, and modern amenities are now baseline expectations.

Office floors need modernisation between tenancies

Vacant floors are the perfect time to upgrade services, finishes, and compliance before the next tenant.

Building facade needs repair or updating

Weathered facades, failed sealants, and dated exteriors affect both the building's image and its weatherproofing.

Strata or body corporate requiring building works

10-year capital works plans and strata maintenance obligations often trigger refurbishment programmes.

Building looking tired? Send us photos and a brief, we'll assess the scope and give you a realistic budget.

Our process

Upgrade the building. Keep it operating.

Every refurbishment follows our structured five-step process. Planned around tenants, trading hours, and building operations.

Building Assessment

We inspect the building, assess the current condition, identify compliance gaps, and understand the management and tenant requirements. This shapes the refurbishment plan.

Design & Staging Plan

Refurbishment design developed with staging plans that minimise tenant disruption. Works sequenced around building operations, trading hours, and access requirements.

Approvals & Coordination

Council approvals, strata approval, and building management coordination completed before work starts. All stakeholders briefed and timelines agreed.

Staged Construction

Works delivered in planned stages, floor by floor, zone by zone, or element by element. Dust, noise, and access managed throughout. Progress documented.

Completion & Handover

Final inspections, compliance certificates, defects liability documentation, and maintenance guides. Building upgraded, tenants happy, value restored.

A refreshed building, without shutting the doors.

Staged delivery, compliance documentation, warranty, and a building that competes with new stock. Tenants retained, rents maintained, value lifted.

What our clients say

Rated 5.0 by Sydney clients.

5.0

Real reviews from homeowners, strata and builders.

We needed a large gabion wall for a steep commercial block. Engineered, certified, and done on time. Professional from start to finish.
AMAnthony Moretti Parramatta
We got three quotes. METCON was not the cheapest but was clearly the most thorough. Worth every dollar.
KLKaren Lawson Bondi Junction
I called three builders and METCON were the only ones who actually came to look at the site before quoting. Honest pricing, no surprises.

Commercial Refurbishments FAQ

Common questions.

Straight answers from the builder. Anything else, just ask.

Do you handle council approvals and engineering?

Yes. We manage the entire process, including:

  • Coordinating with structural engineers
  • Preparing documentation
  • Lodging Development Applications or Complying Development Certificates
  • Liaising with council on your behalf

You do not need to deal with council directly. We handle it all.

What is included in your quotes?

Every METCON quote is fully itemised and includes:

  • Scope of work
  • Materials and specifications
  • Labour costs
  • Excavation and site preparation
  • Drainage (where applicable)
  • Engineering fees
  • Council application fees
  • Project timeline and payment schedule

There are no hidden costs. What we quote is what you pay, unless you request changes to the scope.

What payment terms do you offer?

We use a progress payment structure, which means you pay in stages as the work is completed. This is standard practice in the NSW building industry and protects both parties.

The exact payment schedule depends on the project size and is set out clearly in your quote. We never ask for full payment upfront.

What happens if something goes wrong during the build?

Construction can sometimes uncover unexpected issues, especially on older properties or difficult sites.

If we find something outside the original scope, such as hidden asbestos, unstable soil or structural defects, we tell you immediately, explain the options and give you a clear cost for any additional work before proceeding.

You are never hit with surprise bills.
