We will illustrate your new working environment optimising the design, furniture layout, use of floor space to make it work for you.
Our experienced team of Space Planning CAD designers will produce detailed layout drawings which illustrate the most creative and efficient use of your space, tailored to the specific needs of your business. Part of the process is the development of mood boards which define the colours, finishes and furnishings that best reflect your brand image, fit with your budget and achieve optimum use of space.
We carry out dilapidations works on behalf of landlords and tenants alike, ensuring that the property is ready-for-market or reoccupation in good time.
By choosing to carry out the dilapidations detailed in the Landlords schedule we can help you avoid high dilapidation charges levied by the Landlord and save you money! Leases carry a clause that requires your premises to be left in their original condition. If you need to carry out dilapidations detailed in the Landlord’s schedule we can agree a timetable of works.

From initial consultation to the finishing touches, Metric provided clear communication and keen attention to detail. They listened to our needs and offered creative solutions, making the whole process smooth sailing. We have had countless compliments and we are proud of our new working environment."

“As a special needs school, creating an environment that is safe, supportive, and conducive to learning is of utmost importance to us. We are beyond grateful to Metric for providing us with high-quality, durable, and thoughtfully designed furniture that has made a tremendous difference in our classrooms. Their furniture is not only functional but also designed with accessibility in mind, ensuring that our students—no matter their individual needs—are comfortable and supported throughout the school day. From sensory-friendly seating options to adjustable desks, Metric has truly gone above and beyond in helping us create an inclusive space where our students can thrive. The team at Metric was incredibly responsive and understanding of our unique requirements. Their professional service, timely delivery, and attention to detail made the entire process seamless. We are so thankful for their partnership and highly recommend them to any institution looking to enhance their learning environment. Thank you, Metric, for your dedication to improving the educational experience for our students.”

"We’re delighted with our newly refurbished office space, which Jim at Metric helped us create. Jim couldn’t have been more helpful. His experience and expert knowledge was invaluable in leading us through the process of design, selection and implementation, which had felt daunting at the outset. Jim and designer, Sara, gave excellent advice and suggestions, saving us lots of time in the process. The actual work was well-planned and co-ordinated and completed on time, to a high specification. The whole project was tightly managed throughout and made us feel confident and well-looked after. We’ve also been wholly reassured by the after-sales / post project care, with any snagging issues dealt with promptly. We would not hesitate to work with Jim and Metric again and can recommend them wholeheartedly"
- Sarah Bradley, Managing Director
"Jim [Francis] and the Metric Group team have worked with Kuoni for years. They did the fit out of our Head Office in Dorking, as well as the fit out of our sister brand CV Villas/Jules Verne office in London plus Carrier at Alderley Edge. The fit out at our Head Office is always commented upon when we have visitors, and a lot of people leave inspired by the design and finishing touches. Although the fit out was completed some time ago, I still regularly rely on Jim for any office space/planning/furniture/fit out guidance now. Metric Office Group are consistently helpful, knowledgeable and personable. Great service and someone I would always recommend."
- Serena Burgess-Moore, Senior Property Executive
"From the very first telephone call with Metric Group, it was clear we were in very safe hands. Not only is the team very knowledgeable, they are a delight to work with – nothing is ever too much trouble. Even when we’ve had to update our plans several times, the team are always patient and always support the need to get it right rather than get it done quickly. The team of installers are fantastic and professional, quick and personable. Weve now gone back to Metric Group on numerous occasions and wouldn’t ever consider using another organisation – why would you when the service is this good?"
- Melanie Plotkin, Group Marketing Manager
“When Messe Frankfurt UK moved offices to a new purpose-built unit in Guildford, we were introduced to Metric Group via corporate designer Hal Rich. Working with Jim of Metric Group and Hal, the design and product selection was quickly agreed to create a contemporary office look suited to our modern business. The fit out included electric sit stand desks, fully adjustable ergonomic task chairs, collaborate break out areas and fully equipped meeting rooms. The project was delivered on time and exceeded expectation. The fitting crew were efficient, professional and friendly. Jim and Hal's expertise helped us to move into an exciting workplace, offering our staff a dynamic and inspirational office environment. It is always nice to work with a professional team and Metric Group were a pleasure to work with during our company move.”
- Wendy Fretwell, Corporate Operations Manager
“We approached Metric Group to refresh our accounts area with new furniture, and from start to finish, it was a seamless professional experience. Metric produced discussion plans, samples, and held our hand during the process. Jim Francis, who ran the project, looked after us and was a pleasure to deal with. The install teams were friendly and professional and took away any redundant old furniture for recycling. They completed the project on time and the end result was better than expected. I would not hesitate to recommend Metric Group if you have furniture or fit out requirements."
- Lisa Marsh, Head of Group Support
“I contacted Metric Group recently, requesting a meeting to discuss the relocation of our office. The brief given was to provide us with modern, ergonomically designed options for the new office which would house 8 people. The vision we had was for an open plan office incorporating areas denoted by furniture. Based upon this brief, Jim Francis produced 3 options. After several discussions and site visits, we settled on a design layout and moved on to selecting the specifics of furniture, storage etc. What we moved into was perfect for our needs and presented the company exactly how we had envisaged. The process was negatively uneventful, and Jim was always on hand to change things or offer advice and I would have no hesitation in recommending their services.”
- Tim Searl, Owner
