Who we work with
A contractor for buildings that stay in use
Abrita Construction supports property managers with renovation work in Montreal, the South Shore and the North Shore. Common areas, tenant premises and building improvements are planned around the people who use the property.
Your role connects the owner’s expectations with occupants’ needs. We clarify affected areas, required decisions and operational constraints with you to prepare the work.
What we take care of
- Lobby, corridor and common-area renovations
- Work in premises during a tenant change
- Coordination of work on building systems
- Planning access, deliveries and expected interruptions
Preparing communications to occupants
Before work starts, identify access that must remain available, sensitive periods and people who need notice. An intervention schedule helps the manager prepare communications. Phasing and protection depend on scope; some operations may require a temporary closure or service shutdown.
Separating owner and tenant responsibilities
Drawings, building requirements and the scope agreed in the lease help establish who makes decisions and which work is included. This distinction matters for connections to existing systems, common-area protection and handover. Scope changes should be discussed before they are carried out.
Prioritizing work across a portfolio
For several properties, present needs by address with available reports and possible access periods. We can discuss dividing the work into projects or phases. Each building’s constraints still need to be reviewed, even when the requested improvements are similar.
Our approach
- Listening and quoteSite visit, needs assessment, free detailed quote.
- PlanningSchedule, permits, coordination with your professionals and the building.
- ExecutionClean, phased job site, quality control and continuous communication.
- DeliveryDeficiencies resolved, documentation handed over, building ready to occupy.
Frequently asked questions
Can you renovate an occupied building?
Whether activities can continue depends on the work. We review access, construction zones and necessary interruptions with the manager before agreeing on phasing.
What should we provide to prepare the project?
A list of work by address, available drawings or reports, tenant constraints and target dates. Also identify who approves the budget and changes.
Do you serve several properties on both shores?
We serve Montreal, the South Shore and the North Shore. For a portfolio, availability and coordination are established according to the addresses and scope.
