Just like any other space, commercial buildings need periodic upgrades and renovations to keep them looking their best. For businesses who are interested in maintaining a pristine, modern appearance, investing in regular updates is a good idea. Lions Den Construction has put together a list of key signs that indicate it may be time to renovate your commercial space.
An Outdated Appearance
Look carefully at your space to determine if it gives off an outdated vibe. When comparing it to other offices in the same area, does it feel behind the times? If your space feels old fashioned and your competitors are providing their employees and customers with a more impressive display, consider calling an office interior design expert for assistance.
There’s Noticeable Deterioration
If your commercial space is falling apart at the seams, it is a clear sign that you need an upgrade. Deterioration such as chipping flooring and paint, stained walls and missing ceiling tiles are all trademark signs of a space that needs immediate attention. Check your furniture too. Does it look tired and worn down? Does your space have other structural issues or broken fixtures that age your space? All of these are more signs that you can do with an overhaul.
You Need Additional Square Footage
If you notice that your commercial space is feeling cramped, you will likely benefit from some professional renovation work. As your business grows, you will eventually need more space for employees and customers alike. Depending on your particular business, you may also need more room to store inventory due to your success! Renovating will give your company the room it needs to grow that benefits your employees and your customers alike.
Your Equipment and Furniture Are Outdated
The furniture and equipment in your space will give you a good indication of your need to renovate. If your furniture is broken, stained, and looks to be more than 15 years old, chances are you are overdue for an upgrade. If your equipment is in constant need of repair or no longer works efficiently, these are additional signs of needing a change. Keeping your space looking fresh and modern will make visitors feel at ease and encourage your employees to work harder.
Your Employees Are Disgruntled
When moving around your office or commercial space becomes difficult, productivity can plummet. Businesses that make things convenient and as efficient as possible will have a happier and also more productive workforce. Look at the layout of your space and ask for feedback from your employees about which changes can make their time at work easier. Their feedback and concerns can help you determine if you need to upgrade and which changes to make when you do.
