Services — Commercial Renovations

Commercial Renovations

We renovate commercial interiors while the business inside them keeps working. Phasing plans, dust containment and after-hours scheduling are part of the base scope — not an add-on.

Scope

What we take on

One contract covers demolition through final clean. Licensed trades, permits and inspections are coordinated for you, and every stage is planned against a phasing strategy you approve before work begins.

  • Interior demolition and strip-outs, with dust and debris containment
  • Layout reconfiguration: partitions, glazing, doors and structural openings
  • Complete finish packages — drywall, ceilings, flooring, millwork and paint
  • Mechanical, electrical and plumbing upgrades through licensed trades
  • Lighting, HVAC and energy modernization
  • Barrier-free upgrades: washrooms, entrances and door operators
  • Building permits, inspections and code compliance
  • Phased, after-hours and weekend scheduling for occupied buildings

How we deliver

What makes our commercial renovations different

01

Planned around operations

Before demolition, you approve a phasing plan: which zones close, in what order, behind what containment, and what happens after-hours. Staff and customers always know where to go.

02

Priced before demolition

A detailed scope with named allowances — not a one-line quote. When existing conditions surprise us (they sometimes do), you get options and pricing before work continues.

03

Finished to be photographed

Flush reveals, aligned joints, consistent sightlines. The last 5% of a renovation is what your clients see for the next ten years, so we staff it with our best finishers.

Questions

Commercial Renovations, answered

Can you renovate while we stay open?

Yes — most of our renovation work happens in occupied buildings. We split the project into zones, seal active work areas behind dust walls with negative air pressure, and push loud or disruptive tasks to evenings and weekends. You keep operating in the zones we have not reached yet.

How do you control dust and noise?

Sealed hoarding and poly containment around each work zone, negative air machines with HEPA filtration, protected walkways and daily cleans. Noisy work — coring, demolition, powder-actuated fastening — is scheduled outside your business hours and agreed with you in advance.

Do you handle building permits in Toronto and the GTA?

Yes. We prepare and file permit applications, coordinate any drawings required, and book inspections with the municipality. Most interior commercial renovations in the GTA require a building permit, and timelines vary by city — we build that into the schedule from day one.

How long does a commercial renovation take?

A single-zone refresh can run 3–6 weeks; a full-floor, multi-phase renovation typically runs 2–5 months including permits. After a site walkthrough, we give you a stage-by-stage schedule and hold ourselves to it in a weekly report.
