What Is a Defit Service? Where to Hire One
If you\'re leaving a commercial property, you may have heard the term \"defit\" from your landlord, property manager, or leasing agent. But what is a Defit Service, and where do you actually hire one? A Defit Service is designed to remove tenant-installed fixtures, fittings, structures, and finishes from a commercial property. Depending on the tenancy, it can involve everything from office partitions and workstations to retail counters, flooring, signage, shelving, and other Fitout elements. The important part is that a defit isn\'t simply about emptying a property. The work needs to be planned around the lease, building requirements, existing services, access restrictions, and the condition expected at handover.
