Start with the space.
Discuss the property, the people who use it and the outcome you want to achieve.
Condominium Refurbishments
Corridor & Hallway Refurbishments
Bring continuity and care to the spaces residents move through every day.
01 / The possibilities
A cohesive journey home.
Corridors connect the building’s shared spaces with individual homes. Their finishes need to work together visually while responding to regular use, maintenance and the conditions of the property. A coordinated refurbishment starts with understanding those needs.

02 / Details make the difference
Considered from
every angle.
Beyond the first impression: the choices and practical details that shape a well-planned project.
01 — THE VISION
Consistency from one floor to the next
Corridor refurbishments often repeat a finish language across many doors, corners and elevator lobbies. Agree the details that need to remain consistent and identify exceptions before work is rolled out. Material samples and a clearly described scope help the property team review the overall direction.
02 — THE PRACTICAL DETAILSLook closely at the transitions
Flooring edges, door frames, base details and wall junctions make a noticeable difference to the finished space. Discuss the condition of existing surfaces and what preparation is included. A finish change should account for these connections, rather than considering only the largest wall or floor area.
03 — THE COORDINATION
A sequence residents can understand
A multi-floor project needs a clear conversation about access, work areas and the proposed order of completion. Share building rules, elevator arrangements and resident considerations early. The property team can then plan communication around the agreed sequence and any changes that arise.
THROUGH TO THE FINAL DETAILS
Review completed areas against the agreed finish direction, including transitions and recurring details. Note any items requiring attention in a shared completion list so the building team can track the remaining work clearly.
The Matteo approach
A clear plan.
A considered process.
Know what is being discussed, how decisions connect and what comes next.
Make the scope clear.
Review finishes, responsibilities, access and any design or approval requirements.
Plan the work.
Agree the proposed sequence and arrangements for the building and its occupants.
Review the details.
Review completion against the agreed scope and address outstanding items together.
03 / Make the first conversation count
Your priorities.
Our starting point.
Discuss the number of floors, current finish conditions and any building standards. Sample selections, resident communication and a proposed floor-by-floor sequence can help the property team make informed decisions.
What shapes the investment?
The property, the agreed work and the proposed sequence guide a meaningful proposal.
- Number of floors and total finish area
- Condition and preparation of existing surfaces
- Flooring, wall and trim selections
- Phasing, material movement and building access
04 / A little more clarity
Good questions.
Thoughtful answers.
What to consider before planning corridor & hallway refurbishments.
Have another question? ↗Can the work be organized by floor?
A phased sequence can be discussed after the scope and access requirements are understood. The approach depends on the building, materials and work involved.
What should our board prepare?
Existing photographs, floor plans if available, finish preferences and known maintenance concerns provide a useful starting point.
Should we approve a sample area first?
Where practical, a representative area or sample review can help clarify finishes and recurring details. Agree what the review will cover and how any resulting changes affect the wider scope.
Can corridors and elevator lobbies have different finishes?
Yes. The design direction can distinguish these areas while maintaining a coherent overall appearance. Transitions and material responsibilities should be clear in the scope.
What drives the schedule for a multi-floor project?
The number of floors, preparation needs, selected materials and agreed access arrangements all matter. Share any fixed building dates before the proposed sequence is prepared.
