Frequently Asked Questions About Live Renovations

What is a Live Renovation?

A Live Renovation is a renovation project performed while a building remains occupied and in use. This approach minimizes downtime and allows operations to continue throughout construction.

How do you control dust and noise during Live Renovations?

We use sealed containment zones, HEPA air scrubbers, and noise-reduction tools. Demolition and other loud work is scheduled during off-peak or after-hours times.

Are Live Renovations more expensive?

While Live Renovations can include added logistical planning, they often reduce costs associated with business shutdowns or relocations, making them cost-effective in the long run.

Can you work around sensitive areas like reception desks or break rooms?

Yes. We coordinate closely with building management to prioritize areas, schedule access windows, and isolate critical zones to avoid disruption.
