Office renovation in Bordeaux
What an office renovation includes
Renovating offices in Bordeaux means upgrading an existing floor (partitions, floors, ceilings, lighting, acoustics, networks, furniture) without losing the lease or stopping operations. Kytom designs and builds these renovations as Design & Build from its office on avenue Charles de Gaulle: one point of contact, a fixed price and schedule. Reference: Equaline, 3,000 m² renovated in 8 months in occupied premises in 2025.
the method
An office renovation starts from what is there: a survey of the floor, a diagnosis of partitions, suspended ceilings, electrical networks and ventilation, then a programme of uses (workstations, meeting rooms, informal areas). Design sets the layout, materials and phasing; works then cover removal, partitioning, floors, ceilings, lighting and furniture. The same team manages everything, from the initial survey to the final snag list.
occupied premises
Renovating without stopping work
Most renovations are carried out in occupied premises. The floor is split into zones, teams move from one zone to the next and noisy works take place outside office hours. At Equaline, a customer contact centre with 430 staff, 3,000 m² were renovated in 8 months with weekly phasing and 13 coordinated trades, without interrupting operations.
the framework
Historic buildings, échoppes and protected areas
Central Bordeaux combines dressed stone, échoppes and a protected heritage area. Before designing, we check the authorised use of the premises (turning a dwelling into offices is a change of use), the rules of the protected area and the opinion of the Architecte des Bâtiments de France when the façade is affected. If the offices receive the public, the ERP file (Cerfa 13824) is filed with the city council and reviewed with the opinion of the safety and accessibility committees.
