FedEx Restoration

Structure first, finishes last
The FedEx restoration was as far from a finishes job as a commercial project gets. The starting point was a damaged commercial space; the goal was a fully restored, code-compliant, occupiable office — with the kind of finish quality the brand expects on day one. That meant we ran the project as a full restoration, not a TI: structure first, then MEP, then envelope, then finishes.
We ran the schedule from the inside out. Structural work and MEP rough-in came back first under tight insurance documentation, with daily progress photos. Walls and ceilings followed once systems were verified. Finishes only landed once the rest had been signed off — which sounds obvious, but on restorations it’s the part that usually gets compressed and creates rework. We chose not to.
“On restorations, the order of work is the project. Get the order right and the photographs at the end take care of themselves.”
