My name is John George Fronis, as long as I can remember I have been building something. Since 3 years old, I have been pulling apart toys and structures, breaking them, putting them back together and fixing them or at least trying to fix them. Each weekend I would build cubby houses, each one getting stronger and stronger as the years went on.

Forty-plus years later not much has changed except now I focus on creating sensational work spaces for businesses who are striving for greatness and ultimate success.

This is a great passion of mine as I love to see people and businesses flourish. I have always been a massive believer that a great fitout can be a catalyst for great success. This is why we spend a little more time on the planning process of your fitout to ensure the right layout and flow for your business.

I have been in the building and construction game since 1997 giving me over 28 years experience in this industry. I am somewhat of a perfectionist which means my tradesmen are on top of their game and my clients are happy ones. I believe in honesty and integrity in my personal life and through my business. At Impact Fitouts, we are an open book especially when it comes to quoting and pricing, this is an integral part for our clients to understand exactly where every dollar is being invested and is instrumental when requiring to adhere to a budget. Our main focus at Impact Fitouts is to create long term relationships with businesses, business owners and their employees, growing and evolving together over many years. We pride ourselves on the high quality of our fitouts and our level of service is unparalleled.

I am looking forward to meeting you and collaborating on your upcoming project.
