Shopfitters
Compare local shopfitters and book online in seconds.
Shopfitters design, build and install commercial interiors: retail counters, joinery, shelving, signage surrounds, partitions and full fit-outs for shops, cafes, salons and offices. There is no occupational licence for shopfitting itself, so the trade runs on reputation. Look for proven fit-out experience, public liability insurance, and licensed electricians and plumbers on the team for any services work.
Fit-outs run on deadlines, and OneBookPlus helps you keep them. Compare local shopfitters, read reviews from other business owners, and request quotes with your floor plan attached. Site visits, progress meetings and handover are all booked and tracked in one place, with reminders so nothing slips before opening day.

List your business, freeHow to choose a good Shopfitter
- Look for completed fit-outs in your industry, since cafes, retail and medical suites each have different compliance and workflow needs.
- Confirm public liability insurance and ask how licensed electrical, plumbing and fire services trades are engaged and certified.
- Ask who manages council or certifier approvals, landlord requirements and centre management rules for your site.
- Get a fixed, itemised quote with a payment schedule tied to milestones, not a single upfront lump sum.
- Agree the program in writing, including after-hours work if the site is in a shopping centre.
- Check reviews for how defects were handled after handover, not just how the fit-out looked on day one.
Questions to ask before you book
Frequently asked questions
Do shopfitters need a licence?
There is no specific occupational licence for shopfitting in Australia. What matters is that any electrical, plumbing, gas or fire services work within the fit-out is done by trades licensed in your state, and that structural alterations involve a licensed builder where required. Ask the shopfitter to name their trades and provide compliance certificates at handover.
Do I need council approval for a shop fit-out?
Frequently, yes. A change of use, structural work, new signage or hospitality kitchens typically need approval from council or a private certifier, and landlords and shopping centres impose their own design and hoarding rules. Experienced shopfitters manage this paperwork routinely. Budget time for it, since approvals often take longer than the build itself.
How long does a shop fit-out take?
Small refits can be done in one to two weeks, a typical retail or cafe fit-out often takes four to eight weeks on site, and complex projects run longer. Add lead time before that for design, approvals and joinery manufacture. If you are paying rent during the fit-out, ask your landlord about a fit-out rent-free period.
