What Is a Cat B Fit Out in Bolton?
A Cat B fit-out is the tenant fit-out that turns a Category A space into a finished, branded office your team can actually work in. The landlord hands you a clean but generic shell; we add the partitions, meeting rooms, reception, kitchens, joinery, branding, AV and furniture that make it yours. In short, Cat A gets the space ready to fit out, and Cat B is the fit-out itself.
JDCM Ltd is based in Westhoughton, less than ten minutes from Bolton town centre, and we deliver complete Category B fit-outs across every BL postcode. Whether you are moving into a new unit at Middlebrook, taking professional suites on Chorley New Road, or upgrading offices in Bolton town centre, we take the space from blank Cat A condition to a workplace that reflects how your business operates and how you want clients to see you.
As a single-source contractor we handle the whole job under one contract and one project manager, so you are never left chasing separate trades. If you are weighing up the base build first, see our Cat A fit-out Bolton service, or explore the full office fit-out Bolton offer.
Cat A vs Cat B: Where Does Your Project Sit?
Understanding the split saves money and avoids paying twice for the same element. Cat A is the landlord's responsibility and gives you a serviced shell. Cat B is yours, and it is where the design, the brand and the day-to-day usability all live. Here is how we frame it for Bolton occupiers.
Cat A (the base)
Suspended ceilings, raised access floors, basic grid lighting, painted walls and capped-off services. Clean, serviced and generic, but not ready to occupy and not branded to you.
Cat B (your fit-out)
Space planning, partitions, meeting rooms, reception, kitchens, breakout, joinery, AV, data, branding, finishes and furniture. The layer that makes the office usable, productive and unmistakably yours.
What Does a JDCM Cat B Fit Out Include?
Every Cat B fit-out starts with how your business actually works. We map headcount, client-facing needs, IT and any landlord rules before a partition goes up. From there we deliver the full scope below, all under one roof.
Space Planning
A layout that balances open-plan desking with the meeting rooms, quiet zones and breakout areas your team needs. We design around workflow, not just floor area.
Partitions & Meeting Rooms
Frameless glass partitions, acoustic dividers and full-height walls to create meeting rooms, boardrooms and private offices. Defined spaces without losing light or openness.
Bespoke Joinery & Reception
Branded reception desks, storage walls, tea-point units and feature joinery built and installed by our own joinery team in Bolton.
Kitchens & Breakout
Staff kitchens, tea points and informal breakout areas that give your team somewhere to recharge and meet, fully plumbed, powered and finished.
AV & Data
Integrated AV for meeting rooms, Cat 6A structured data cabling to every desk, floor boxes, power distribution and the connectivity a modern office runs on.
Branding & Finishes
Wall graphics, manifestation, feature walls, flooring, decoration and the final finishes that turn a neutral shell into a space that looks and feels like your brand.
Lighting & Electrical
Lighting adjustments, feature and task lighting, additional power, emergency lighting and second-fix electrical works tied into the new layout.
Furniture & Handover
Furniture sourcing and installation, snagging, deep clean and a fully finished workplace handed over ready for your team to move in and start working.
Why a Cat B Fit Out Is Worth Getting Right
- A workplace that fits your business: the layout is built around how your people actually work, not a generic template.
- A brand clients can see: reception, finishes and branding make the right impression from the moment someone walks in.
- Better staff retention: a well-planned, comfortable office helps you attract and keep good people in a competitive Bolton market.
- One point of accountability: a single contractor and one project manager mean no gaps between trades and no finger-pointing.
- On time, on budget: a detailed, itemised quote and a fixed programme with no hidden costs and no surprises at the end.

How We Work
Every Cat B fit-out follows a clear, transparent process, so you always know where the project stands.
1. Free Site Survey
We visit your Bolton premises, take measurements, review the Cat A condition and landlord requirements, and build a brief around your headcount, brand and budget. The survey is completely free.
2. Space Plan & Price
We produce a space plan and a fully itemised quotation with a programme. You see exactly what every element costs and when each phase completes before you commit to anything.
3. Build
Our own tradespeople install partitions, ceilings, joinery, AV, data, flooring and finishes. Your dedicated project manager runs the programme, manages health and safety and reports progress weekly.
4. Furnish & Handover
We install furniture, snag every detail, deep-clean the space and hand over a finished, branded office ready for immediate occupation, with aftercare included as standard.
