Office Renovations
Reworking a space your team is still using. Conference rooms, private offices, reception areas and break rooms, phased so the business keeps running.
An office renovation
has an audience
On a buildout the space is empty. On an office renovation there are people at desks forty feet from the work, trying to take calls.
That changes almost everything about how the job is run. Noisy work gets scheduled rather than just happening. Partitions get sealed and taped rather than draped. Access routes stay clear and egress stays legal at every stage, not just at the beginning and the end.
It also changes what "done" means. A conference room handed back with a functioning outlet in the wrong place is not finished, it is a daily annoyance for the next ten years. We set device locations against how the room will actually be used.
- Phased so occupied areas stay usable
- Sealed temporary partitions, not plastic sheeting
- Noisy work scheduled around your calendar
- Egress and access maintained throughout
- Daily clean-down of shared areas
The spaces we rework most
Conference rooms
Acoustic treatment, display wall backing and cable paths, dimmable lighting zones, and enough power at the table that nobody is running an extension cord.
Private offices
Partitions and doors, sidelights or glass fronts where the plan calls for daylight, and sound separation that actually works between adjoining rooms.
Reception
The room clients judge you in. Millwork desks, feature walls, signage backing and lighting that flatters the space rather than flattening it.
Break rooms
Cabinetry, counters, sink and appliance rough-in, durable flooring, and ventilation sized for a room where forty people heat lunch in the same twenty minutes.
Three things to settle
before we price it
Headcount and growth
Designing for today's team and moving in next year is expensive. Tell us where the business is going and we will build in the capacity now, particularly in electrical and data.
What has to stay running
Which rooms cannot go offline, which days are immovable, whether clients visit. This shapes the phasing plan more than the drawings do.
Lease terms and landlord approvals
Many office renovations need landlord sign-off, and some have restoration obligations at lease end. Better to know that before the wall goes in than at the end of the term.
We do the small
jobs too
Not every office project is a renovation. Sometimes it is one wall, a door where there was not one, a break room that needs replacing, or a suite that needs painting and new flooring between tenants.
We take that work. It is often the fastest way for a new client to find out whether we are worth using on something bigger, and we would rather earn that than talk our way into it.
