At RJ Electrical Contractors, we’ve been helping businesses across Birmingham and the UK create inspiring, high-performing and flexible workspaces for over 10 years. Our Cat B fit-out expertise goes beyond just installations – we guide you through the whole process from initial consultation to project completion so you get the support and alignment you need.
What is a Category B (CAT B) Fit Out?
A Cat B fit out is a comprehensive office transformation that turns an empty office space into a fully functional and bespoke workspace. Unlike a Cat A fit-out, which provides the basic building shell with essential services, a Cat B fit-out goes beyond. It includes flooring, advanced lighting, decorative elements, and the integration of furniture, fixtures, IT, comms systems, and security solutions.
The goal is to create an office space tailored to your business needs, enhancing productivity, employee satisfaction, and overall performance. Whether you need collaborative areas, private offices, meeting rooms, or unique workstations, a Cat B fit-out ensures your office space aligns with your operational needs and brand.
Category B Fit Outs
The journey from an empty shell to a fully working workplace requires planning, technical expertise and an understanding of how businesses work today. Choosing the right fit-out contractor is crucial to your Cat B fit out project. A fit-out contractor who can manage the timeline and communicate and understand your vision means the project will align with your needs and be on budget.
Cat B fit outs are the final and most fun stage of your workplace transformation where your requirements and brand come together to create something unique.
A complete Cat B fit out includes:
Advanced lighting design and installation
High-spec power distribution
High-performance data infrastructure
Audio-visual system integration
Security and access control solutions
Kitchen and breakout area installations
Reception and client-facing spaces
