South Coast Improvement Co. begins $275,000 renovation project

110 Faunce Corner Road - North Dartmouth, MA 110 Faunce Corner Road - North Dartmouth, MA

North Dartmouth, MA South Coast Improvement Co., a design-build general contractor serving New England and the Mid-Atlantic states, recently began a renovation project for La-Z-Boy Furniture at 110 Faunce Corner Rd. The two-stage project involves conversion of the store from its current colonial look to the more modern, contemporary décor at newer La-Z-Boy locations.

Stage one of the renovation began in March on the left side of the store. A temporary wall was constructed to separate work zone from the other side of the building, where La-Z-Boy has remained opened.

The scope of the renovations features new walls, floors, carpeting, lighting, ceiling work and new paint. The previous colors were white to fit the colonial theme. The new more contemporary look features orange, greens and browns.

The first stage of the renovation concluded last month. The second stage will be finished later this month. The entire cost of the renovation is $275,000.

“As a general contractor, we always want a great final result. But what has earned our firm repeat business has been minimizing interruption to everyday operations,” said Tom Quinlan, president of South Coast Improvement Company. “For this first project, we’re looking to show the good people at La-Z-Boy why 85% of our project are from repeat customers.”
