PROJECT OVERVIEW

When Habitat needed a reliable partner to execute a fast-track hallway renovation across a large multifamily property in Edgewater, they turned to us to get the job done—efficiently and with care.

tHE CHALLENGE

Renovating 30,000 square feet of common area hallways in fully occupied buildings is no small task. The project demanded a rapid turnaround, constant coordination, and minimal disruption to residents. Additionally, certain finishes—like carpet—required acclimated indoor temperatures for proper installation, which introduced added scheduling considerations during colder months. Flexibility and precise timing were critical to staying on track without compromising quality.

oUR APPROACH

We implemented a carefully phased construction plan to ensure seamless execution. Working closely with property management, we communicated proactively with residents and scheduled work to avoid peak traffic times in hallways. Our crews remained nimble, adapting to weather-related delays without compromising quality or progress. Every finish—from lighting and flooring to paint and trim—was selected and installed with an emphasis on durability, aesthetics and consistency.

THE RESULT

The Pines now features refreshed, modernized hallways that enhance the tenant experience and reflect Habitat’s standard for quality living environments. ETI completed 30,000 square feet of hallway upgrades on a fast-track schedule—with zero tenant complaints, no missed deadlines, and finishes built to last. From execution to impact, the renovation was a smooth transformation delivered with precision, professionalism, and minimal disruption.
