Occupied-Office & After-Hours Renovations
Your team leaves on Friday. On Monday, the office is better.
We renovate active offices in small, carefully planned phases, working evenings and weekends so your business keeps running and your people return to a clean, working space every morning.
Overview
Overview
Not every organization can move out while its office is renovated. Relocating temporarily is expensive and disruptive, and many improvements, from new meeting rooms to refreshed finishes, can be done around your team instead.
We operate our own busy centres, so we know what disruption costs. A recent example is Suite 2000 at 885 West Georgia in Vancouver, where we renovated an active office after hours, over weekends and in small phases, so the space stayed in use throughout.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
Can you renovate our office while we are still working in it?
In most cases, yes. We plan the work in phases, schedule disruptive activities after hours and on weekends, and protect occupied areas so your team can keep working.
Does after-hours work cost more?
Some trades charge premiums for evening and weekend work, and phasing can extend the overall duration. We price these options transparently so you can weigh them against the cost of relocating or losing use of the space.
How do you control dust and noise?
We use sealed temporary partitions, floor and furniture protection, air filtration where needed and strict end-of-shift cleaning. The noisiest work, such as demolition and coring, is scheduled when the office is empty.
