One of the more challenging issues when renovating in an apartment building is working with your neighbors. For this project, it was determined that in order to tap into the waste pipe we would need access to the neighbors unit below. We would need to cut a 12 x12 square in their sheetrock, extend the riser, sheetrock, plaster, paint.
It was a very simple and straight forward procedure, however when our clients approached their neighbors to ask for permission they were immediately met with resistance and ultimately the answer was no. This was unforeseen and our clients needed a solution - Quick!
Our team got to work re-work the plans, flipping the master closet and the master bathroom while turning the entry closet into the 2nd bathroom - It was stressful and challenging, but thinking on our toes is what we do best!
