New construction and retrofit work
Retrofit. Work in an existing building is phased by zone, floor, or bay, so the rest of the building can keep operating where the layout allows.
New construction. Insulation is installed from the approved drawings and specification, after rough-in inspection and before the assembly is closed. See commercial new construction insulation.
Working around operations
Work in a building that stays open is phased around how it runs.
- Racking, docks, and lift access. Roof deck and high-wall work runs from aerial lifts in the aisles, one bay or zone at a time, so shipping and receiving can continue in the rest of the building where the layout allows.
- Production zones and shutdown windows. Areas next to running equipment are booked into shutdowns or shift gaps, and each zone is handed back before the next one opens.
- Occupied, conditioned buildings. Offices, clinics, and schools stay in use, so work is phased floor by floor, with containment around each area and after-hours shifts where needed.
- Rated unit separations. Walls and floors between units are built to the tested fire and sound assembly on the drawings, not to a substitute fill.
What the estimate is based on
Drawings and the specification speed up a new-construction takeoff; photos help on an existing building.
- The project address
- Building type, approximate square footage, and clear height
- Racking layout, aisle widths, and the dock schedule
- Shutdown dates and which production zones can be released
- Tenant or department hours, and whether after-hours work is needed
- The rated wall and floor assemblies shown on the drawings

Closed-cell and open-cell spray foam, metal building blanket and liner systems, continuous board and cavity insulation in walls, fiberglass batt in framed and rated assemblies, cellulose in existing cavities, and air sealing at openings and penetrations.
