Remodeling
Remodeling deals with primarily improving the aesthetics of a space. It focuses on changing the structure and can be interior or exterior. Examples include:
- Fully transforming the structure and/or style of a building or a space
- Changing the layout of a building in any way that’s different from the original floor plan
- Combining spaces that were originally separated by walls or other permanent structures
- Adding or removing anything to/from the original structure
Remodeling can get complex when you’re changing big parts of the structure. It’s important to hire an experienced commercial contractor to see you through the process. If things are done wrong while remodeling, it’s costly to go back and fix the issues. You want to ensure things go right the first time.
Retrofitting
Retrofitting is similar to remodeling and can often overlap with it. You’re adding things to the original structure. However, remodeling focuses more on the aesthetics and the way the building looks, incorporating some functionality. Retrofitting focuses primarily on functionality.
You’re adding new technology and other things to improve the functionality of your building. An example would be energy retrofits, or a green retrofit of your building. You can add thicker windows, newer lighting, and heating to an aging building to improve energy efficiency, energy usage, and more.
The Case of Remodel and Retrofit it Versus Replace it
If you’re experiencing issues with your aging building, it can be hard to determine whether you should remodel or rebuild something from the ground up. Remodeling or retrofitting is more cost-effective. For example, you can update new systems like heating or lighting to perform better for energy savings. You can change and update the layout inside a building when you have more employees or decide you need certain spaces.
Destructing and rebuilding is the costliest option. Usually, you should only consider it when you have no other option. It’s time-consuming and may require you to shut down operations until the process is complete. But sometimes, starting completely fresh is necessary. If your building is dilapidated and has become unsafe for operations, there may be no way to fix it effectively.
