Our Live Renovation Process – Built Around Your Business
Every project begins with detailed planning and close collaboration. Our team assesses your space, hours of operation, customer flow, and staff requirements to design a renovation schedule that aligns with your unique business environment.
Step 1 – Site Assessment & Scheduling
We meet with your team to determine the best times for noisy work, material deliveries, and staging. For restaurants and retail locations, we tailor our plan to peak customer hours.
Step 2 – Safety & Containment
We set up dust containment zones, signage, temporary barriers, and HEPA filtration systems to isolate work areas and ensure safety during operating hours.
Step 3 – Phased Construction
Work is completed in clearly defined phases—often during evenings or weekends—to allow uninterrupted access to key spaces such as kitchens, reception areas, or storefronts.
Step 4 – Daily Clean-Up & Communication
Each shift ends with a thorough clean-up, ensuring your space remains presentable. Our project manager provides regular updates so you're always informed.

Frequently Asked Questions – Live Renovation Services Vancouver
What is a live renovation?
A live renovation refers to construction work completed while the building or business remains open and operational. It’s designed to minimize disruption and maintain safety throughout the process.
Can you renovate a restaurant without closing it?
Yes. Vanguard has extensive experience with franchise restaurant renovations in Vancouver, often completing upgrades in stages during off-hours to ensure continued food service and compliance.
How do you handle noise and dust control?
We use noise-reduction tools, conduct disruptive work during off-hours, and install temporary partitions and HEPA filtration units to isolate dust and debris.
Do live renovations cost more?
There may be modest premiums for after-hours labor or special containment procedures, but these costs are typically offset by your ability to remain open and avoid lost revenue.
