Community Living Renovation
About the service
Community living environments, such as co-housing developments and group residential properties, present a unique set of renovation challenges. Residents live and move through the space while work is happening. Accessibility, durability, and the human quality of the environment matter enormously. At re:done, we approach these projects with the same care and intentionality we bring to residential work, scaled to the complexity of a shared living setting.
Types of Community Living Projects We Serve
We work on common-area renovations, unit updates and remodels, accessibility improvements, kitchen and dining facility upgrades, exterior and site projects, and full facility refreshes. We’re comfortable working within the operational constraints of occupied facilities, and can plan work in phases, protecting residents from disruption, and communicating clearly with facility management throughout the project.
Accessibility and Universal Design
Many community living renovations involve bringing spaces into compliance with ADA requirements. We have experience designing and building accessible bathrooms, wider corridor modifications, ramp and threshold improvements, and grab bar and blocking installations that meet both code requirements and real usability needs. Accessibility done well doesn’t feel institutional, it feels thoughtful.
Durable Finishes for Shared Environments
Materials in community living spaces take significantly more wear than residential environments. We specify commercial-grade flooring, wall protection, cabinetry hardware, and plumbing fixtures appropriate for high-traffic shared spaces. The goal is a finished environment that looks good at ribbon-cutting and still looks good five years later.
A Partner You Can Trust to Follow Through
Community living projects often involve complex stakeholder groups, including ownership, management and residents. We communicate clearly, keep schedules, and take responsibility for coordinating subcontractors and tradespeople. You’ll always know where the project stands.
