At the heart of INSTU is Wenda, a hands-on commercial interiors specialist with over a decade of experience delivering high-quality partitions, ceilings, glazing, doors and hardware across Canberra. What began as one man on the tools has evolved into a tight, reliable team trusted by builders, project managers, architects and tenancy managers throughout the ACT.
INSTU’s reputation has been built the same way every fitout should be built — with honesty, accountability, and a commitment to getting the job done the first time.
Wenda is known across Canberra’s commercial interiors space for three things:
Whether it’s complex specs, awkward site access, noise restrictions or tight turnaround, Wenda is the one who finds a practical workaround. His background in major commercial projects enables him to re-engineer systems, reduce unnecessary costs, and maintain acoustic and fire ratings.
Wenda sees every project as a reflection of his name. He inspects every job after the first paint, checks details others overlook, and maintains high standards right up to handover. His hands-on leadership is a key reason INSTU is trusted by repeat clients and referred across Canberra’s building industry.
INSTU started with a simple idea:
Deliver commercial interior fitouts the way clients actually need them — reliable, compliant, cost-smart, and finished to a high standard.
Over time, the business evolved from a one-person operation to a balanced team of framers, sheeters, setters, carpenters and glazing specialists who share the same values:
Today, INSTU provides complete supply-and-install services for glazed partitions, ceilings, doors, windows and internal wall systems across Canberra.

INSTU supports a wide range of commercial clients, including:
If it’s inside a commercial building, the INSTU team has worked on it.
Practical value engineering
Not every wall type needs the most expensive material. INSTU advises on the best-performing, most cost-efficient options that still hit compliance targets.
Night-shift readiness
When sites have noise restrictions or short timelines, we adjust our schedule — not yours.
Hands-on leadership
Wenda is involved from planning to handover, ensuring consistency across every stage.

We specialise exclusively in commercial interiors, giving us a deep understanding of ACT building standards, acoustic requirements, fire ratings, and tenancy delivery.
When you work with INSTU, you’re not just hiring a contractor.
You’re partnering with a specialist team led by someone who genuinely wants your project to succeed.
Wenda’s promise is simple:
“We manage the details, uphold the quality, and make sure handover happens without stress.”
Wenda brings over 10 years of hands-on commercial interiors experience, supported by a skilled team of framers, sheeters, setters, carpenters and glazing specialists. The crew is trained to deliver consistent, high-quality finishes across partitions, ceilings, glazing, doors and hardware.
Yes. Wenda frequently assists with early planning, offering practical advice on specifications, compliance, buildability and cost-saving alternatives. This upfront support helps avoid rework, reduce delays, and streamline the path to certification.
Commercial interiors require specific knowledge around compliance, acoustic performance, fire ratings, buildability and sequencing. By specialising only in commercial work, INSTU provides higher accuracy, fewer variations and more predictable outcomes for builders, project managers and tenancy managers.
