Renovation
Renovating a shop or practice: opening on time
For a shop, office or practice, every day closed costs revenue. That is why a renovation here is planned from the opening date, not from the first working day. At the end, customers should walk into a finished, clean space.
Planning back from the opening date
A possible order is: clear, repair, paint, lay the floor, clean and fit out. The exact sequence is adapted to the work planned. Counting back from opening day shows when each step must start at the latest.
A buffer of one or two days before opening is sensible. Deliveries run late, and paint and floor coverings need time to dry.
- Clearing and removal
- Repairs and filling
- Painting and wallpapering
- Flooring, then final clean
- Fittings and stock
Protecting ongoing operations
If the business has to keep running, work is done in sections or outside opening hours, for example in the evening and at weekends. Dust barriers separate the work area from the customer area.
In practices and shops, low-emission products and sufficient drying and ventilation times are especially important. When the rooms can be used again should be clarified before work starts.
Before reopening
After the tradespeople, fine dust lies on shelves, windowsills and lights. A post-construction clean before the fit-out saves doing the work twice.
Finally, it is worth walking through from a customer’s point of view: entrance, shop window, counter and toilets. These areas shape the first impression after reopening.
