Oxford programme

How we run office decorating schemes locally.

  1. 01 · Survey

    Out-of-hours site visit where possible. Occupancy pattern captured, key-cycle agreed with FM, alarm-code coordination confirmed. Furniture move requirement assessed, priced separately if material.

  2. 02 · Specification

    Low-VOC stack as standard (Dulux Trade Diamond Matt and Quick Dry Eggshell) so working areas reopen without odour. Brand colours sample-cut on the actual substrate before mobilisation.

  3. 03 · RAMS

    After-hours method statement: alarm code coordination, security sign-in/out, lone-working procedure, fire-route maintenance during works. Issued to FM 48 hours ahead of first shift.

  4. 04 · Delivery

    Friday-evening-to-Monday-morning is the typical shift pattern. Furniture sheeted, floors protected, surfaces wiped down before staff return. Daily reset for any zone that flips back into use mid-programme.

  5. 05 · Handover

    Photo record, paint touch-up kit left with FM, debrief if a dilapidations condition report is required for the surveyor.

Frequently asked · Oxford

What clients in Oxford usually ask first.

Can you clean college and heritage stone safely?
Yes. DOFF steam at low pressure removes soiling without harming the stone; we sample first and work to any conservation conditions.
Do you work in Oxford's pedestrian centre?
Yes. Access, deliveries and out-of-hours working are planned around the centre's restrictions and agreed before we mobilise.
How far do you cover around Oxford?
Oxford city plus Bicester, Abingdon, Witney and the business parks along the A34 and M40 corridor.
Can the office stay open during the works?
Usually yes. We work evenings, weekends and over closure periods. Some larger scopes need zone-by-zone delivery rather than full out-of-hours. Agreed at survey.
Will the paint smell on Monday morning?
No. Standard spec is low-VOC water-based. Walls are touch-dry within 30 minutes and recoatable within 2-4 hours. Odour-free well before working hours.
Can you handle lease dilapidations?
Yes. Pre-paint condition report, repaint to lease standard, photo handover for the surveyor. Common scope for both move-out and move-in alike.
Do you move furniture?
Light furniture is sheeted and shifted within the room as standard. Significant moves are priced separately or coordinated with a removals partner.
What if we have brand or designer colour specs?
RAL- or Pantone-matched on site, sampled on the actual substrate before mobilisation. Brand guidelines packs accepted as the specification input.
