Capability Statement Enquiry

A defit typically refers to returning a leased commercial space to its original condition, as outlined in a lease agreement. A strip out is often used interchangeably but can also refer more broadly to the removal of all internal fixtures and fittings. In Sydney, both terms are commonly used in office, retail, and hospitality make-good projects.

A commercial defit in Sydney usually includes the removal of internal walls, flooring, ceilings, lighting, signage, and any tenant-installed fixtures. It may also involve minor repairs and cleanup to ensure the space is ready for handover to the landlord.

 

The timeline depends on the size and complexity of the job. A small retail defit might take a day or two, while a large-scale office strip out in Sydney could take up to a week. We always aim to meet tight deadlines and offer after-hours work to minimise disruption.

 

In most commercial settings, especially in inner-city Sydney, council permits may not be needed for internal works—however, some buildings or shopping centres have specific requirements. At JND Australia, we handle all necessary compliance checks before starting any defit or strip out.

 

Yes. Many Sydney clients request defits or strip outs after hours to avoid disruption to surrounding businesses. We offer flexible scheduling, including nights and weekends.

 

We handle defits and strip outs across Sydney for offices, retail stores, restaurants, gyms, clinics, and industrial spaces. No matter the size or industry, we tailor the service to your site’s needs.
