Vantage Builders completes fast track renovations for Wellesley Services

Faced with the challenge of a schedule of eight weeks from demolition to a certificate of occupancy, Vantage Builders worked seven days a week to complete the project for Wellesley Information Services on time and on budget. The project was a full renovation of the interior building and included detailed finishes, glass-walled offices and a new server room with a pre-action sprinkler system. Vantage Builder's ability to be in constant communication with the architect, the engineer and its team of subcontractors proved to be critical to the timing and the success of the project.
