Phased Renovations

We plan the work sequence before we start, not on the fly. That means: defining which zones are under construction vs. occupied at each phase, establishing contractor access routes that don't cross active work areas, scheduling noisy work (demo, core drilling) during off-hours or agreed windows, and using sealed dust containment barriers with negative pressure where needed.

After-hours and weekend work does carry a premium due to overtime labor rates. We quote it explicitly so you can weigh the cost of disruption against the cost of off-hours scheduling. In most cases, the premium is worth it when customer-facing operations or staff productivity are at stake.

You get a daily summary of: work completed the prior day, work planned for the current day, any items that need your input, and anything affecting your staff's access or comfort. We don't send these at 6pm; you have them before your team arrives.

It depends on your space, but a common structure is: Phase 1, non-disruption prep (permits, long-lead orders, staging); Phase 2, section A demo and rough-in during off-hours; Phase 3, finishes in section A (you move back); Phase 4, section B demo and rough-in; Phase 5, finishes in section B and a final walkthrough. We document the phase sequence before contract signing.
