How often should a company refresh its office, and what does it cost?

By Gurpreet Singh, Co-Founder5 min read

Short answer

Refresh your office every 6 months for basic services, as Officea recommends, and book larger work as the floor needs it. Pricing depends on the amount of work required. Anti-termite treatment and carpet cleaning start from ₹7 per sq ft, before GST. REFRESH by Officea starts with an office walk-through and gives one fixed quote, one schedule and a snag-checked handover.

Most companies refresh their office only when it becomes embarrassing: before a client visit, at a lease renewal or after a complaint. By then the work is bigger and the disruption is larger. A regular rhythm avoids that, and this article explains what it looks like and what it costs.

How often should a company refresh its office?

Every 6 months for basic services. Larger work is booked when the floor needs it.

Officea recommends refreshing an office every 6 months for basic services, such as anti-termite treatment and carpet cleaning. Small problems are fixed early, so the office does not drift into needing a full rebuild. Lighting, reception and layout changes depend on the condition and use of your floor.

Why not wait until the office looks tired?

Because small problems grow, and the fix gets bigger and more disruptive.

The Officea REFRESH approach is to look at the floor regularly, fix small things early and keep the workplace looking and working well, instead of waiting until it needs a full rebuild. A scuffed wall or a worn carpet edge is a small job now. Left alone for long enough, the whole floor needs attention at once.

How much does an office refresh cost?

Pricing depends on the amount of work required. Anti-termite treatment and carpet cleaning start from ₹7 per sq ft, before GST.

The price depends on the work you choose, the floor area and the condition of the space. After an office walk-through, Officea gives one written, fixed quote, so you know the price and scope before any work begins. Any single item, such as only a repaint, can be quoted on its own.

What happens in each refresh cycle?

A walk-through, a fixed quote, planned works and a snag-checked handover.

Each visit starts with an office walk-through and an office health audit across six areas. You receive a written plan, a fixed quote and a schedule. Works are planned around your team, and the visit ends with a final walk-through and a snag check. This is the process of REFRESH by Officea.

When does a refresh become a full fit-out?

When the layout, headcount or location no longer suits the business.

If you are moving, or the floor plan no longer fits how your team works, a refresh will not solve it. See refresh or full fit-out to decide, and why refreshing an occupied office is hard for what a one-stop service changes.
