Office moves & fit-outs in Epsom
The furniture is the easy part of moving offices. The internet connection that takes weeks to install, the cabling that has to go in before the ceiling closes and the network that must work at nine on Monday are where moves go wrong. We plan the IT side from the first floor plan to day one.
Onsite technicians cover Epsom. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Office moves & fit-outs for Epsom businesses
Epsom is largely residential, but Manukau Road and the Greenlane end carry medical centres, dental practices, specialist rooms, real estate offices and professional services, with several schools and the showgrounds nearby. Many businesses run from converted homes with a small car park out front.
Converted homes bring a familiar set of problems: a router in the old lounge, staff in former bedrooms with poor signal, and a printer cabled to one computer. Health practices also need patient data kept private under the Health Information Privacy Code, which means locked-down devices, proper user accounts rather than shared logins, and tested backups.
We get involved early, ideally when you are still choosing a building. We check what internet services are available at the address, tell you how long they take and order them as soon as the lease is signed. We mark up the floor plan with data points, Wi-Fi access points, screens and the comms cupboard, and give the builder and electrician a clear specification to work to, before any walls go up.
Technicians attend Epsom practices and offices for network, computer and printer work, while routine requests are handled remotely. We book onsite work at times that suit appointment schedules.
What's included
Building check
Before you sign, we check internet availability, existing cabling, the comms cupboard and phone and mobile coverage at the new address.
Old site clear-out
Equipment removed from the old office, data wiped from anything left behind and internet services cancelled on the right date.
Internet ordering
Fibre and a backup connection ordered early, with lead times tracked and chased so the line is live before move day.
Network build
Firewall, switches and Wi-Fi installed and tested at the new site before any staff arrive.
Cabling and Wi-Fi design
Data points, access point positions and the comms cabinet marked on the floor plan, with a written specification for the cabling installer.
Builder and electrician coordination
We work with your fit-out team so data cabling, power for equipment and ceiling access happen in the right order.
Is it right for your Epsom office?
Bring us in early if:
- You are choosing between buildings and want to know the internet options
- A fit-out is starting and the builder needs a cabling plan
- Your move date is fixed and the internet hasn't been ordered yet
- You are expanding into a second floor or another tenancy
- You want staff working normally on the first morning in the new office
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Office moves & fit-outs in Epsom: questions
Our clinic staff share one login on reception. Should we change that?
Yes. Shared logins make it impossible to see who accessed a record and are hard to secure. We set up individual accounts with quick sign-in options, so staff still move quickly between front desk computers without sharing passwords.
Can you fix Wi-Fi in a converted house used as an office?
Usually with two or three business access points placed where people actually work, connected back to the network by cable where possible. We survey the building first and quote the job in writing.
Do you install the cabling?
We design the network cabling and Wi-Fi, specify it and manage the installer, or do smaller low-voltage cabling jobs ourselves. Power outlets and any mains wiring are done by a registered electrician.
Should we buy new equipment for the move?
A move is a good time to replace ageing switches, Wi-Fi or a tired server, because the work is happening anyway. We'll tell you what is worth moving and what isn't.
Can we keep working during the move?
Most moves are done over a weekend or after hours. Email, Teams and cloud files keep working throughout, and the new office network is ready before staff arrive.
How early should we involve you?
As early as possible, and at least two to three months before the move. Business fibre can take several weeks, longer where a new connection to the building is needed, and cabling has to be planned before walls and ceilings are closed.
