A busy office market
North Sydney's towers, St Leonards and Crows Nest's commercial buildings, and Chatswood's office and retail precincts see constant tenancy turnover. Common jobs:
- Office floor strip-outs before a new fit-out.
- Make-goods at lease end.
- Medical and dental suites — specialised services.
- Retail in Chatswood's centres and streets.
Medical suites
Treatment room plumbing, specialised electrical, compressed air, suction lines and occasionally radiation shielding from imaging rooms. Services are made safe by the appropriate licensed trades, and any specialised removal requirements are identified first.
Building rules
Towers here run the same way as the CBD: inductions, goods lift and dock bookings, noisy works after hours, fire isolations via building management. See office strip outs.
Asbestos
Older buildings' registers are reviewed; any asbestos is removed by separately licensed removalists.
Areas covered
North Sydney, Milsons Point, St Leonards, Crows Nest, Artarmon, Chatswood and Lane Cove West.

Questions people ask before they commit
Do you strip out medical and dental suites?
Yes. St Leonards, Crows Nest and Chatswood have many medical, dental and allied health tenancies. These involve plumbing to treatment rooms, specialised electrical and data, sometimes lead-lined walls for imaging rooms, and careful services isolation.
Are North Sydney buildings similar to the CBD?
Largely. Towers in North Sydney and St Leonards have the same building management requirements — lift and dock bookings, inductions and after-hours noisy works.
What about Chatswood retail?
Chatswood has large shopping centres and street retail. Retail strip-outs there follow centre rules and trading-hour restrictions.
How early should a make-good be planned?
Several months before lease expiry, to allow for lease review, landlord agreement and booking works around building rules.
