Commercial Renovations in Burnaby
Burnaby is one of our busiest commercial markets. Old To New renovates offices in the Metrotown towers, builds out retail and restaurant space around Brentwood and Burnaby Heights, and upgrades clinics and warehouse units from Edmonds to the flats below Capitol Hill. We work for tenants, owners and property managers, carry full insurance, and manage City of Burnaby permits ourselves. Every project starts with a free walkthrough and a written quote you can actually plan around.
Office renovations in Metrotown and Brentwood towers
Burnaby's office stock has split personality: polished newer towers around Metrotown and Brentwood, and older low-rise buildings along Kingsway and in Edmonds that need real updating. In the towers we work to strict building rules, insurance certificates on file, freight elevator bookings, after-hours windows for demolition and coring, and daily cleanup so shared corridors stay presentable. In older buildings the work is often heavier, new lighting and electrical, updated HVAC distribution, accessible washrooms, opened-up floor plans. Either way we phase the job so your team keeps working, moving departments zone by zone instead of sending everyone home. Most Burnaby office clients never fully close during their renovation.
Retail, restaurant and clinic buildouts across Burnaby's corridors
Hastings Street through Burnaby Heights, Kingsway through Metrotown and Edmonds, and the new retail podiums in Brentwood each come with different landlords and different rules, and we have built under most of them. Restaurant fitouts get careful sequencing of plumbing, ventilation and electrical so health and building inspections land in the right order. Medical and dental clinics near Metrotown and Deer Lake get the extra attention their use demands, operatory plumbing, upgraded panels, accessible entrances and washrooms, and sound control between rooms. For retail tenants we plan around your opening date from day one, because in a lease every week of construction is rent paid on a space earning nothing.
Permits, code upgrades and accessibility in Burnaby buildings
City of Burnaby permits are required for structural, plumbing and electrical changes, and commercial renovations often trigger upgrades beyond your original wish list, fire separations, exit requirements, and accessibility improvements to entrances and washrooms. That catches many tenants off guard, especially in Burnaby's large stock of 1960s and 1970s buildings where little has been touched in decades. We flag these triggers during the quote stage, not after demolition, so your budget reflects what approval will actually require. We prepare and manage the permit applications, coordinate required professional sign-offs, and schedule inspections so the project keeps moving. When your certificate of occupancy matters for a lease deadline, that discipline is worth more than any finish upgrade.
