Plan the change around what is already there
Renovation and extension work begins with understanding the existing space and the result the client needs. The appropriate design, assessment, and construction scope depends on actual site conditions and the extent of the proposed work.
A renovation should not begin with assumptions
Describe
Explain what is not working, what should change, and how the space is currently used.
Assess
Review available property information and identify what must be verified on site.
Plan
Define the design and construction scope, priorities, exclusions, and sequence.
Coordinate
Manage approved work with communication about site conditions and necessary decisions.
Disruption should be discussed honestly
Some renovation work affects access, utilities, safety, noise, dust, or normal operations. The project plan should identify relevant constraints and set realistic expectations before work begins.
- Existing-condition information
- Access and working-hour constraints
- Protection of retained areas
- Sequencing and client decision points
Design support
Review architectural design for layouts, drawings, and coordinated planning.
Integrated delivery
Consider design and build when both planning and construction need coordination.

See commercial fit-out for offices, retail, and operating spaces.
Tell AVICOR what needs to change
